Miss Grand South Africa 2015 was the inaugural edition of the Miss Grand South Africa beauty pageant,[1][2] held on September 11, 2015, at the Lyric Theatre in Gold Reef City amusement park, Johannesburg.[1][3][4][5] Eight candidates, who qualified for the national pageant via an online screening performed earlier in April, competed for the title,[4][5][6] and a 22-year-old business student from the province of Free State, Magdalena Lenie Pieterse, was elected the winner,[1][3][7][8] while the Eastern Cape representative, Danielle Leach, was named the vice-miss.[3] Lenie Pieterse then represented the country at the Miss Grand International 2015 pageant held in Thailand on October 25 but was unplaced.[9]

The event was managed by a Johannesburg-based event organizer chaired by Anel de Swardt, Commonwealth Pageants South Africa (Pty) Ltd.[1][3][4][6]

In the same event, the winner of the Mistress category, Rina van Schalkwyk, was also named.[3] She then represented the country at the Mrs. Universe 2017 pageant held in Durban, South Africa, where she was named the third runner-up.[10]
