Miss America 2023 was the 95th edition of the Miss America pageant, which occurred at the Mohegan Sun on December 16, 2022.[1] The 2023 calendar year, based on several sources, may be the final year at Mohegan Sun.[2]
Rather than being aired on mainstream television, the pageant was streamed for the second consecutive year.[3] Unlike the 2022 edition, which was streamed on the broadly-available Peacock from NBC, the 2023 edition was only available through the pageant streaming service Pageants Live, which features a subscription price of $32.99 per month with no lower-cost or event-only option available.[4]
Emma Broyles of Alaska crowned Grace Stanke of Wisconsin as Miss America 2023 at the end of the event. Stanke became the third woman from Wisconsin won the title. Coincidentally, both Stanke and Broyles had previously competed together in Miss America's Outstanding Teen 2018.[5]
