Miss Cultural Harvest Festival

Miss Cultural Harvest Festival is a Malaysian ethnic beauty pageant held annually during the Sarawak Harvest and Folklore Festival since 1999.

Background
Miss Cultural Harvest Festival is held in conjunction with the Sarawak Harvest and Folklore Festival, one of the highlights of the Gawai Dayak celebration. The Sarawak Harvest and Folklore Festival is the largest in Sarawak in terms of the community involved.

The beauty pageant aims to seek a winner who has the grace and poise, articulate with a sound knowledge of Sarawak and its tourism-related subjects. The beauty pageant is open to all single ladies of any background, unlike the traditional Kumang Gawai pageant where the contestants are of the Dayak community.
