Miss Grand Spain was held for the first time in 2016 after Vicente Gonzalez took over the franchise from the former owner, Marcel Arnalot Salazar, in 2015. Few provincial pageants were held to select their representatives for the inaugural edition such as Miss Grand Sevilla, Miss Grand Huelva, and Miss Grand Ciudad Real. However, the number of its preliminary contest was significantly increased to 24 in the 2021 edition. In some provinces, for instance, Seville, Huelva, and Cádiz, local pageants are also held to determine delegates for the province competition, in which winners hold the title "Miss Grand (Province)" for the year of their reign. Some runners-up of the provincial pageants might be appointed to represent the neighboring provinces in case the directors of such provinces were lacking.
The pageant was canceled for the first time in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, originally scheduled to be held at the Fair Pavilion in the city of Daimiel in Ciudad Real Province on 3 October, with 31 provincial representatives. Nonetheless, all such candidates instead gained the right to participate in Las Palmas for the succeeding edition, Miss Grand Spain 2021. The event also featured the presence of Dori Rodríguez from Navarre, the first openly transgender contestant to compete for the Miss Grand Spain title.
Since 2018, the pageant, including its regional organs, has collaborated with many non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to raise funds available and provide necessities for the needed people, such as; the Pequeño Valiente Foundation, which is dedicated to providing the necessary support to children and families affected by childhood cancers, as well as the Mechones Solidarios, the Málaga-based NGO that produce and donate natural hair wigs to chemotherapy-induced and universal alopecia patients.
