The Miss Maine USA competition is the pageant that selects the representative for the state of Maine in the Miss USA pageant. From 2007, the pageant will be directed by Mackenzie Davis, Miss Maine USA 2004.

Maine is one of the least successful Miss USA states, having never advanced farther than the semi-finals. In 2006 Katee Stearns made the semi-finals, becoming only the fifth woman from Maine and the first since 1977 to make the cut.

Three Miss Maine USAs were former Miss Maine Teen USA titleholders, who competed at Miss Teen USA. One also competed at Miss America.
