Background
Daytona Beach was announced as the host city for the 1986 pageant in November 1985.[2] This marked the first time the pageant was held in Daytona Beach, although it had previously been staged in Florida twice: in Lakeland in 1983, the pageant's inaugural year, and in Miami in 1985.[3] The Volusia County Council committed up to $100,000 in county money in its bid to host the pageant, in return for a promised 18 minutes of promotional footage during the broadcast.[3] The decision was criticised by feminists who criticised the county's decision to spend money on the pageant.[4]
