Background

Miss America 2024 will be the 96th installment of the pageant, but the 102nd Miss America anniversary. For the 2024 competition, the age limits to compete were raised to between 18 and 28.[2] Contestants must also be a United States resident or citizen, and meet the particular residency requirements of the states, municipalities, and districts they represent.[3]

As part of changes made at the Miss America Scholarship Program by new CEO Robin Fleming in 2023, all state competitions and the Miss America Competition will hold a fitness competition segment,[2] and contestants will be allowed to choose between competing in the talent competition or a speech competition called "HER Story."[4] The talent competition had previously been required since 1938.[5] The 2024 competition will be the first Miss America competition since 2018 where contestants will be compete in a fitness category.[6]

U.S. state contests occurred during the spring and summer of 2023.
