The first annual Gasparilla Pageant, naming Miss Gasparilla 2007, was held in January 2007, produced by Aim Direct Media. www.GasparillaPageant.com.

The winners were included in a historic photo shoot at the H.B. Plant Museum.

The Tampa bay tradition called Gasparilla traditionally has been a celebration for the well-to-do. The only chance of being a parde "rider" was to be a social high-climber or the spuse/choild of one. Local gorups of men called Krewes dress in pairate gear and walk in the Gasparilla Parade.

The Pageant allows non-Krewe related young ladies to also have a chance to ride in the parade and win the official title of Miss Gasparilla.
