The 2027 Miss Thailand pageant, themed "The Golden Era – Thailand's International Golden Age," is being organized by Cat Unique Limited under Atittaya Benjapack, who holds the rights to manage the competition from 2027 to 2572 across all 77 provinces.

Three provinces have recently signed agreements to participate in this inaugural group:

* Bangkok: Managed by Thananan Kaewpuang, aims to find representatives who embody elegance, modernity, and the standards of the capital. * Nonthaburi: Managed by Warangkana Utenasut (City Director), taking on the important role of host province and organizing this year's main pageant. * Nakhon Si Thammarat: Managed by Paranath Chaiyarong (City Director), promoting the cultural identity of the southern region and the potential of southern women.

The pageant aims to elevate the beauty competition platform into a space that creates business opportunities, promotes local culture, and invites organizers from other provinces to make history and spark a new era of Miss Thailand together.

Atittaya Benjapack stated: "I am delighted and grateful to Thananan Kaewpuang, Warangkana Utenasut, and Paranath Chaiyarong for their confidence and for being among the first to join us in making history with Miss Thailand. Especially Nonthaburi Province, which is fully prepared to serve as host and will undoubtedly create a magnificent and worthy event. To other provinces still considering, I encourage you to take the leap. We are fully ready to support and want like-minded partners to revive the beauty pageant legacy that Thais are proud of through Miss Thailand 2027 together."
