May the Odds Be Ever in Your Favor: The 25th Miss Erie Quarter Quell

Happy Hunger Games, Erie! To celebrate a monumental 25 years of the Miss Erie Pageant, Zone Dance Club is throwing a celebration of dystopian proportions. On Friday, August 21, 2026, past Miss Erie titleholders will return to the stage to compete in a fierce, high-stakes tribute event: The Quarter Quell.

Guiding us through the games are two legendary hosts: former Miss Erie, Misty Michaels Kall, and Zone's very own Tony G.

In true Hunger Games fashion, these reigning champions will face off across three competitive categories. We kick off the night with a creative Presentation inspired by their assigned Districts. Next, the glitz and glamour get cranked to the absolute maximum for an Evening Gown category that is 100% Capitol Couture. Expect jaw-dropping, avant-garde elegance that would make Effie Trinket proud. Finally, the night wraps up with Talent, where the entertainment breaks free from the theme to let each performer's unique skills shine.

The reapings are over, the tributes are ready, and the stage is set. Will your favorite past champion take it all?
