Miss Grand Costa Rica 2022 was the first edition of the Miss Grand Costa Rica beauty pageant, held at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre in San José on 7 July 2022. Twelve contestants, chosen to participate directly through the national casting held by the Concurso Nacional de Belleza de Costa Rica (CNB Costa Rica), competed for the title, of whom a 28-year-old model from Guanacaste, Brenda Muñoz, was named the winner. She then represented Costa Rica in the Miss Grand International 2022 pageant held on October 25 in Indonesia, but got a non-placement.
The event was hosted by Catalina Murillo, Sasa Gomez, and Henry Wood.
Following the end of the international tournament, due to such an unsatisfactory competition result, some Costa Ricans accused the national organizers of a lack of preparation and mismanagement of Brenda's English language training before entering the international contest. The country's licensee, Erick Solís, was also blamed for using Brenda only for business purposes.
