Pageants in Vermont, from small towns to the state title

Vermont is one of the most rural states in the country, with no city much larger than a small town elsewhere. Burlington on Lake Champlain is the largest, with South Burlington, Winooski and Essex next to it. Montpelier, the smallest state capital in the US, sits in the center, and Rutland, Barre, St. Albans and Brattleboro serve their own corners of the state.

Life here follows the seasons. The Green Mountains bring skiers in winter and hikers in summer, autumn leaves draw visitors from everywhere, and maple syrup, dairy farms and local food are a point of pride. The University of Vermont in Burlington and Middlebury College bring students in, and many Vermont women work in tourism, healthcare, education and small business. Craft breweries, farm weddings and ski town shops give the state a relaxed but distinctive style that shows up well in a profile photo.

Snowy roads and winding valleys make a statewide event in person hard to plan. AmericaBeauty Vermont runs every stage online, so a candidate in the Northeast Kingdom competes on the same terms as one in Burlington.

Vermont towns with their own contest

Vermont candidates name their city or town at entry. Women from Burlington, South Burlington, Rutland, Essex and Barre each get a city stage of their own, and those from smaller towns choose Other city in Vermont and still compete in a city stage before the state stage.
