RULES AND REGULATIONS for Baby Miss and Little Miss Fayetteville Pageants 2026
All winners of their age groups will receive a crown, trophy, and sash. Plus, there will be up to 3 runner-ups who will also receive a trophy. Participants will be judged on the following criteria: Beauty/Appearance, Stage Presence, Stage Personality, and Overall Impression.
Reigning Queens can compete again this year only if they move up to a new age division. Majestic winners must wait out a year unless they qualify for an entire new Majestic group.
If you choose to enter the "optional" Majestic Competition, you can qualify for more awards! Each show will have a Majestic winner: (ages 0-4, and 5-10). The Overall Majestic is the contestant from each pageant that has the hightest overall scores. (YOU MUST BE ENTERED INTO THE MAJESTIC COMPETITION TO QUALIFY). Majestic Winners of each show will receive a Majestic Crown, Trophy, and Sash. There will be 2 Majestic Winners, one for each show!
The People's Choice Award will be voted online during the week prior to the pageant. The contestant with the most votes from each show (ages 0-4, and 5-10) will win the People's Choice Award, a crown, a trophy and a $100 Gift Certificate to use toward any pageant affiliated with Dream Girl Events. (Yes, winners of this contest are also eligible to win all other competitions and titles!)
Please note that if our numbers are smaller or larger for any specific group and we need to adjust the pageant's times to make it run more efficiently, you will be notified no later than one day after the final entry deadline. The groups will never be combined for judging. All adjustments are always in your favor.
We will be collecting monetary donations for the CLL Soctiey. Thanks for your support! Everyone with a minimum of $40 donated online by the pageant deadline will get a tiara, medallion, and recognition! This link to donate is available on our website: www.babymissfayetteville.com.
The Judges' decisions are final. Parents and attendees are not allowed to discuss or approach the judges at any time during the Pageant.
Inappropriate behavior, unsportsmanlike conduct, or failure to follow pageant rules by contestants, parents, or anyone in attendance will not be tolerated. Pageant staff reserve the right to immediately dismiss or disqualify any participant when deemed necessary to protect the integrity and positive environment of the program.
All participants and guests are expected to be courteous and respectful at all times. Profanity is not permitted backstage, in dressing rooms, or anywhere within the pageant venue. We ask that everyone set a positive example for our contestants and help create a fun, encouraging, and uplifting experience for all involved.
Please note that no refunds will be issued in the event of dismissal or disqualification.
The contestant's individual score sheets will be available or mailed after the pageant. Please be patient for these as it takes time to organize them and get them out after the pageant. Sometimes we can make these available to you on the day of the pageant.
It is your responsibility to remember to pick up your score sheets, when availalbe, or photogenic pictures before leaving the pageant. Photos will not be mailed
Each contestant will receive free admission plus one person to enter Free as their guardian or parent. Tickets will be $5 in advance and will NOT be sold at the door. Please purchase your tickets in advance! Tickets sales will stop when we reach capacity or at 9 pm the night before the pageant, whichever happens first, so please purchase your tickets early to make sure you and your family and friends have tickets.
Only one adult is allowed in the dressing room per contestant. Siblings are not allowed, uless they are also contestants. The adult in the dressing room must also pay admission, unless they are the contestant's "one free admission" ticket.
Due to limited space, we asked that there is only one person per contestant back stage with a contestant.
A digital photo (headshot) of each contestant is needed by midnight on April 15th to add to our website. This does not need to be a professional photo, but it does need to be a headshot and should be a clear photo. Square photos work the best, and rectangular works okay, but we will crop the bottom.
The address for the rehearsal and the pageant is: Dream Girl Events, 3035-G Boone Trail, Fayetteville, NC.
If you are in Majestic, this means you are in the photogenic competition and will need to bring your 8x10 photo (or similar size) to rehearsal. Failure to bring your photo to rehearsal removes you from our photogenic competition. Rehearsal is not required, but your picture is required by the end of rehearsal if you are in the photogenic competition.
Please be on time and ready to compete on the day of the pageant. Contestants that miss their stage call will have an automatic 3 point deduction.
Please help us keep the pageant area clean. It's okay to bring snacks for your child in the dressing room, but please clean up any mess. Food and drinks are not allowed in the Main Hall.
