Pageants in Maine, from coastal towns to the state title
Maine is the most forested state in the country, with a rocky coastline of harbors and lighthouses, Acadia National Park near Bar Harbor, and long stretches of woods and lakes inland. Most entries come from the southern coast around Portland and South Portland, from Lewiston and Auburn, from the capital Augusta, and from Bangor and the towns of the Penobscot valley.
Life in Maine is closely tied to the sea and the seasons, from lobster boats and summer tourism on the coast to ski country in the western mountains. College towns such as Orono, home of the University of Maine, and Brunswick, Waterville and Lewiston with their liberal arts colleges, bring together young women who often build their own small creative businesses.
Northern and inland Maine is sparsely populated, and winter roads make long trips hard for months at a time. With AmericaBeauty Maine, every stage runs online, so a candidate in Presque Isle or a small coastal village needs only her phone, and family and friends vote from wherever they spend the winter.
Maine cities with their own city stage
Every Maine city with entries gets its own city stage. Choose "Other city in Maine" and enter Portland, Lewiston, Bangor, South Portland or Augusta, and you compete for your own city title before the state stage.
