The Miss Nevada Organization is excited to announce the 2013 Miss Nevada and Miss Nevada’s Outstanding Teen competitions will be held in North Las Vegas, June 14-15, 2013. Texas Station Gambling Hall and Hotel will serve as the host venue for the two-night competition where contestants from across the state will compete for the titles of Miss Nevada and Miss Nevada’s Outstanding Teen. The winners will go on to represent the state of Nevada at the respective national competitions, Miss America and Miss America’s Outstanding Teen.

“We are thrilled the pageant is coming to North Las Vegas, and Texas Station is the perfect venue for the competition,” said Amy Hacker, Executive Director of the Miss Nevada Organization. “Nevada is full of beautiful, talented young women and we are excited they will have the opportunity to showcase their beauty, intelligence, and talent in the entertainment capital of the world.”

During the first night of competition, the miss contestants will compete in on-stage question and talent while the teen contestants will perform their talents for the distinguished panel of judges. At the end of the evening, talent awards will be handed out to the top miss and teen contestant. The following evening, the miss contestants compete in evening wear and swimsuit and the teen contestants take the stage in fitness wear, evening wear, and on-stage question. Earlier in the week, all the contestants will take part in the private interview competition.
