Miss Lindeza 2017 is an Australian national beauty pageant run by E & E Events Management and Estela Tapia is National Director of the contest. It was first held with the name Miss Latina Australia[1] and is now a hybrid of the original contest with new categories such as Miss Teen, Junior and Multi-cultural for contestants of background other than spano/Latino heritage. The South American pageant Reina Hispanoamericana in Bolivia has been chosen for the winner of Miss Lindeza to go represent Australia in 2017.[2]

Charity

[edit]

Miss Lindeza will be flown to Bolivia home to the “Hogar Maria Auxiliadora” Orphanage[3] E & E Events has been raising funds through its pageants since 2015 for this cause, this makes a logical fit for Lindeza having the Orphanage and Reina Hispanoamericana located in the same country.[2]

The original pageant named Miss Latina Australia took place on 2015 then again in 2016, in the Regent Ballroom in Northcote, Melbourne.[3][1] The pageant has now been named Miss Lindeza and has a larger categories not limited to contestants of Hispanic/Latino heritage.[2] Georgette Psarreas the current title holder was crowned on July 9, 2016 in The Regent Ballroom, Melbourne, Victoria.[3]
