The Miss Burkina North America Pageant is more than a celebration of beauty; it is a platform of culture, purpose, and impact. Created to honor the rich traditions of Burkina Faso while empowering young Burkinabè women living in North America, the pageant provides a stage where identity, talent, and advocacy meet.
Held every two years, the pageant brings together the Burkinabè diaspora to celebrate heritage while addressing real challenges affecting communities in Burkina Faso and beyond. Contestants share their stories, showcase their culture, and present meaningful initiatives aimed at creating lasting change.
More than a crown, the title of Miss Burkina North America represents a mission to serve as an ambassador of culture, education, and hope.
Through this event, we:
Celebrate Burkinabè culture, from traditional fashion to art, music, and history.
Empower women to become leaders and changemakers in their communities.
Raise funds and awareness to support education, youth development, and humanitarian initiatives in Burkina Faso.
Unite the diaspora, creating a network of support, pride, and shared purpose.
What began in 2016 as a vision to bring the community together has grown into an inspiring movement of resilience and pride, recognized by the Embassy of Burkina Faso and international media. The Miss Burkina North America Pageant continues to light the way for the next generation of leaders, dreamers, and cultural ambassadors.
