General Pageant Information

We are proud to introduce the Colorado Cinderella Scholarship Pageant to our beautiful state. Much more than a beauty pageant, the Cinderella Scholarship Pageant is the worlds largest and most prestigious youth development scholarship program of its kind. Since its inception in 1976 over one million dollars in prizes have been awarded through the program including educational tours and scholarships. The pageant is divided into four major age divisions for girls age 3 to 17 and three baby divisions ages newborn to 35 months and Prince Charming for boys newborn to 6 yrs. competing on local, state, and international levels. Girls compete in party wear, casual wear, talent (tot personality for ages 3-6), close up appraisal and photogenic. Babies and boys compete in party wear (simple dress & suite), playtime and photogenic. We will be having preliminary pageants all across the state and then a magical state pageant in May. Please check the preliminary pageant calendar to find a pageant in your area so you can become a part of our Cinderella family. Everyone is a winner and will receive an award!
