The pageant is once known as the Saniata ti Ylocos Sur competition until its name was changed into Miss Ilocos Sur starting 2023. Its winners represent the province in national competitions, such as Binibining Pilipinas and Mutya ng Pilipinas. The first edition was held in 2008, where Patricia Francisco won, becoming the inaugural titleholder.[1]

The Saniata's court consists of the winner, the Saniata ti Ylocos, it's runner ups, the Saniata World, Saniata Tourism, Saniata Environment, the 1st and 2nd runner ups.

Krishnah Gravidez and Christine Opiaza once competed in this pageant as Miss Santiago and Miss Sinait in 2016 and 2020, and ended up both winning national pageants, the latter winning Miss Grand Philippines and eventually the first runner-up position in Miss Grand International 2024, and the other winning Miss World Philippines 2024.
