They only have until this Thursday, inclusive! The candidates to succeed Clara Crouzette, elected Miss Alès 2024 almost a year ago, must hurry up and come forward if they have not done so already, since January 2 is the deadline for registrations for the next election! Moreover, at the end of last week, Raphaël Vasquez, the head of the city's festivities department, confided that “23 applications” arrived at Mairie Prim'. Enough to delight Raphaële Navarro, deputy mayor in charge of the festivities and herself a former Miss Languedoc and finalist in the Miss France election in 2001: “This is the first time that we have had more than twenty candidates.

According to her, several factors could explain such enthusiasm. “The vision of things is changing; young women are less apprehensive about presenting themselves”, declares the former beauty queen. “And then, we communicate differently, with possible pre-registrations and the organization, for three years, of semi-finals in Alès, which allows us to talk about this event during the summer.” Furthermore, she who “thinks we will have a great casting”, believes that the announcement of the organization of the Miss Languedoc final in the capital of the Cévennes, which the Miss France committee is programming, on its website, Friday August 1, 2025, is also an asset. “Of course, this puts the spotlight on the city and encourages the girls to come forward since the final will take place at their home…”, says Raphaële Navarro. Without neglecting the fact that as a result, the new Miss France, Angélique Angarni-Filopon, will travel to Alès twice next year: for this final, therefore, and, as tradition dictates, during the election of Miss Alès, expected on Saturday February 8, at the Méjannes-lès-Alès exhibition center (read below). Where will the ten young women who have been selected during the pre-selection which will take place on Sunday, January 5, from 2 p.m., be expected at the town hall.
How to attend the gala evening ?
The next steps in the designation of the future ambassador of Alès are, therefore, the pre-selection expected on Sunday, January 5 and, of course, the big evening of February 8, where several hundred people will be expected.
