What started as the RPM Gold Leaf Awards in 1964 by RPM editor and publisher Walt Grealis and record label executive Stan Klees, soon became The JUNO Awards in 1971. Named in tribute to Pierre Juneau, the first chairperson of the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), the JUNO Awards were founded to raise the public profile and recognition of musical artists in Canada.
The JUNO Awards has evolved from an industry awards event to a weeklong festival that travels city to city across the country. It encompasses both public-facing fan events and industry/networking opportunities featuring a diverse array of Canadian artists and emerging talent. In addition to The JUNO Awards Broadcast, JUNO Week event programming includes JUNO Songwriters' Circle, JUNOfest, and more.
In 2002, The JUNO Awards went on the road to take the music to the fans and expanded its scope to include a series of public and private events outside of the Awards broadcast. Each host city has embraced their opportunity to support the JUNO Awards and build an enduring legacy of music programs in their market.
was such a experience being at a award show. loved the energy. everyone was so dressed up.
First time attending the Juno’s. It was a tightly synced spectacle and a feast for the senses.
Top notch show with amazing performances! Well Done Junos! 🇨🇦
Various acts were great. Would have liked a couple more awards to be given. Award to Ann Murray was really good
The event, the performers, the lights, setting etc. were all great. My only complaint was the steady stream of traffic up and down the aisle (sect 116) obstructing our view. I chose aisle seated for an unobstructed view , however there was no control of those going up and down the aisles during performances.
From organization to signage (way-finding), the quality of the people and the artists, the opening and hosting of Nelly Furtado, and most of all..for bringing to to HALIFAX and Mi'kma'ki, this event was ever so memorable. Thank you for all the efforts and dedication you invested in celebrating the best of Canadian art and Halifax hospitality. We needed that exposure for Halifax and you gave it in the best way possible. THANK YOU!!
Very friendly atmosphere. The arena was lively. Nelly Furtado was styling. Superb mixture of performers. Security was helpful. Halifax is an amazing city.
I took my daughter to this event as we are avid music fans. it met and exceeded our exp, watching the show was a good experience but to be there 1st hand is like no other . from the fan experience and the celebrity sightings it was a night we both will cherish and never forget
This was Our first live Junos as attendees . The energy from the crowd at Scotiabank Centre was electrifying. Anne Murray is a home town celebrity that we are so proud of and to see. See her in person, was special. Elliott Page has done amazing work for the LGBTQ in our community and the rest of the star performers did an amazing job of entertaining us. The the stage set op was spectacular. Well done Halifax management on the Metro Transit buses too. Our rides were on time and filled with happy people who enjoyed the show, too.
We bought tickets in the upper level of the Scotiabank Centre. The Juno’s were fabulous and we thoroughly enjoyed the show. The seats however, left a lot to be desired. Having never been in the Centre, we never realized that the seats had box seats blocking a huge port of our vision to the stage, making it seem like you’re watching the show through a window. The designers realize how poorly designed the place is and have projectors along the back of the box seat walls so you can actually see the show! I’m not sure I’d go there again unless the show was spectacular and warranted the expense of lower level seats
I understand organizers have boxes to check, diversity and inclusion to consider but as a taxpayer that contributes to grants that support the Juno show and a person that invested to see Canadian Music talent celebrated i was extremely disappointed to see excess 10 minutes taken from musicians to allow for the unnecessary political commentary and and showmanship of Page - Tegan and Sara Half way point my joy was taken, Not impressed not happy. Seriously disappointed,. Been to CCMAS also, never had that waste of time take place. Also in NS we lost Guthro and Goodwin no mention?
What a night ! We applied on line for the red carpet event and were selected! It was amazing and very well organized and well done!
This was my first time attending the Juno awards. I was unsure of what to expect. It was amazing! Will definitely attend again!
It was a fun experience. I sat way up near the ceiling in the large auditorium. I think there should be a rule that performers may use any language, but a translation should be projected on some screen onstage giving the words for their songs in either English or French. There were songs this year performed very beautifully in Punjabi and Portuguese, I believe. It is not such an issue with languages of Indigenous Canadians, but with very diverse languages that few people in this country are likely to understand, there should be some translation, to increase the listener’s enjoyment.
It was a great show, lots of excellent music. Easy in and easy out. Refreshments were available at the commissary and there was very little waiting in line which I dispise. Great show, excellent time was had and would certainly do it again.
What a fantastic experience. Such an array of talented musicians. The production and sound was impeccable. Highly recommend anyone to attend if you ever have the opportunity.
The Juno’s was great. We were in the nosebleed section and the screens were great but a lot of the stage was completely blocked which was disappointing. The live recording was cool and the crowd coaching was interesting to see. All in all a nice event and I would attend again if it came back to Halifax.
We were excited about this event but unfortunately very disappointed. The event only seemed concerned about the TV broadcast and the audience that paid to be in the seats was forgotten. It was very difficult to see from the seats with very a limited number of screens and every commercial break was down time - no entertainment at all to keep the audience engaged. It made for a pretty boring experience. We attended a number of years back in London Ontario - they put on a great show for both TV and the sitting audience - this should be a format that the Junos return to and strive to produce.
We really enjoyed the show even though the only performer we knew was Nickelback. It was very well choreographed and on time. It would have been nice to have had bigger names show up for the show, but I don't think that's the fault of the Juno organizers, it's the stars who think they are too good for the Junos or maybe they just didn't want to come to Edmonton. I think Edmonton did a great job hosting.
Attending the Junos is a unique event that requires it be treated as such, especially for newbies have no idea. To build anticipation, elevate this experience, helpful tips on how to get the most of; what to expect, dress (if choose) highlight or suggest links check out festivities week of. This isn't like a concert and should not be treated as such. The show seemed shortened, didn't feel satisfaction that typically accompanies. With that being said, next year's Junos in Halifax, will be a vacay.
