Sussex County pageants registration due Nov. 1

The annual Sussex County Pageants are seeking contestants to take part in the 2026 event set for 4 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 22, at the CHEER Center in Georgetown.

The deadline to register is Saturday, Nov. 1; registration forms can be found at bit.ly/2026GSCPageants.

Areas of competition include a private interview, on-stage formal wear, talent and fitness wear (Junior Miss only). Talent can be a song, dance, cheer routine, art presentation, karate, poetry or anything special a contestant would like to share.

The pageant is open to Sussex County residents ages 4-12 in three divisions: Little Miss (4-6), Juvenile Miss (7-9) and Junior Miss (10-12). 

The pageant began in 2000 as a fundraiser for the Make-A-Wish Foundation of the Mid-Atlantic. The pageant enables young ladies to improve their public speaking skills, build confidence and meet new friends. The winners will serve their communities throughout the year by helping with service projects.
