The Competition

The Princess Of Asia® Minnesota Pageant is where it all started, and it’s still the heart of the program. Held every February at the Mall of America, it’s a live, in-person, judged competition open to candidates across all five age divisions — from Little (4–6) through Teen. Contestants are evaluated on stage: interview, evening gown walk, personal introduction, on-stage question, and community service.

Registration opens each September for the following February. Unlike the Appointed Title path, this is a competitive outcome — nobody can promise who wins, and that’s the point. Titleholders receive the crown and title itself; winners additionally receive an award package that covers their National Conference fee for the Summer 2027 National Conference.
