Miss Grand and Miss Supranational Australia 2016 was an Australian beauty contest held to determine the country representatives for the Miss Grand International 2016 and Miss Supranational 2016 pageants.[1][2][3] The event was held on 14 August 2016,[1][2] at the Playhouse Theatre located in the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA), Sydney.[4] Eighteen candidates from different states and territories competed for the title, and a 27-year-old Pharmacist based in New South Wales, Dani Fitch, was named Miss Grand Australia 2016,[1][3] while Silka Kurzak of Queensland was elected Miss Supranational Australia 2016.[1][2]
In addition to the main winners, one of the national aspirants, Anyier Teresa Yuol of New South Wales, who finished as the first runner-up at the competition, was also appointed "Miss Grand South Sudan 2016",[5][6] since she has South Sudanese descent but relocated to Australia due to the civil war in the country.[6]
Both Dani Fitch and Silka Kurzak were respectively placed among the top 20 and 25 finalists in the international competition held in the United States and Poland,[7][8] while Teresa Yuol was unplaced.[7] Dani Fitch later became the national director of Miss Grand Australia the following year.[9][10]
