History
After Miss Grand Italy's director, Giuseppe Puzio, began franchising the regional competitions to local organizers in 2019, the license for the Lazio region was granted to a local organizer, Romano Storace, who is also the chairperson of an Colleferro-based modeling agency named RS Model Junior. Romano organized the first edition of Miss Grand Lazio on August 31, 2019, at the Piazza Marcantonio Colonna in Paliano. In 2022, the pageant was held parallelly with the Miss Grand Liguria pageant due to a lack of Ligurian region coordinator. The contract between Romano Storace and Miss Grand Italy organizer was terminated in 2024 when the regional license was taken over by Alessandra Fattoruso.

Several local auditions and pageants were organized annually regionwide to elect the final candidates for the Miss Grand Lazio pageant, such as in Montelanico and Colleferro.
