The Miss Hong Kong Pageant (Chinese: 香港小姐競選), or Miss HK (港姐) for short, is a beauty pageant organized by the leading Hong Kong television station, Television Broadcasts (TVB). In 2012, for the first time, every HK citizen with valid HK identity card was allowed to vote for who gets which position given the shortlisted 3 finalists. Nevertheless, this had to be abandoned last minute supposedly due to a server breakdown.

Famous quotes containing the word pageant:
“Our revels now are ended. These our actors,
As I foretold you, were all spirits, and
Are melted into air, into thin air.
And, like the baseless fabric of this vision,
The cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces,
The solemn temples, the great globe itself—
Yea, all which it inherit—shall dissolve
And, like this insubstantial pageant faded,
Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff
As dreams are made on, and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
