The Mahaffey Theater hosts the third round of preliminaries on Friday,ย where contestants in both the Miss Florida’s Outstanding Teen and Miss Florida Pageants participate in preliminary rounds at 4 and 8 p.m., respectively.

After being crowned on Saturday, June 21 by Myrrhanda Jones, Miss Florida 2013, the new Miss Florida title will represent the Sunshine State at the 2015 Miss America Pageant in September. Jones was the third runner-up in the 2014 Miss America Pageant after a severe injury in a mishap during talent.
