Meet the Miss Teen Great Britain Team

Based in a glittering (literally, full of sparkle) office in Culcheth, Warrington, the Pageant Girl® team coordinate the pageant finals for Miss Teen Great Britain, United Kingdom Galaxy Pageants, Miss International UK, Universal Woman Great Britain, UK’s National Miss & Pageant Girl UK. With over a decade of experience in the pageant industry, our team are dedicated to creating professional and memorable events.

Being a part of our organisation is about celebrating and empowering women, we recognise that all women are beautiful and one of the most fantastic qualities is when a girl is unapologetically herself. The Pageant Girl® motto is ‘Beautifully Inspiring.’ Since 2012, the award-winning Pageant Girl® competitions have raised over £850,000 for our chosen charities.

We are a friendly and relaxed organisation; many of our contestants have never competed in a pageant before but we ensure they feel completely comfortable at the grand final. Not all of the finalists can win the ultimate prize but our goal is to ensure that they all return home with great memories and new friends!

Holly Pirrie

Director

Holly Pirrie (née Ikin) is a former pageant contestant herself, and so, she knows exactly what it is like to compete – having competed in pageants in the UK and internationally. Consequently, Holly knows exactly what it takes to organise a great event!

Holly was inspired by her own experiences in ‘pageant land,’ and she wanted to give more girls, and women, the opportunities that she had been afforded through pageantry. Holly works closely with all of the contestants and winners to ensure that they have an amazing year.

Holly was the first director of the award-winning United Kingdom Galaxy Pageants and this launched in 2008. In 2010, Holly founded Miss Teen Great Britain, which has grown to become the leading pageant for teenagers in the UK. Holly was also awarded the UK National Director licences for Miss International and Miss Grand International. From 2011-2018, Holly was also the UK national director for Miss Intercontinental. In 2019, Holly launched the Miss Pageant Girl UK competition, from there, The Pageant Girl Weekender was born and a Ms & Miss Teen Pageant Girl UK are now crowned alongside Miss Pageant Girl UK. Most recently in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020/2021, Holly famously created our UK’s National Miss pageant, and we held our first ever final in the summer of 2021 at our Pageant Girl Weekender and crowned 5 gorgeous new queens! Holly’s passion for the industry is evident to everyone who meets her and this shows in the events that she organises.
