The JUNO Awards is an annual awards show highlighting the best talent in the Canadian music industry. In 2025 the JUNOs take place in Vancouver.
The JUNO Awards is a big night for the Canadian music industry. It’s an annual celebration of the previous year’s singles, albums, videos and other music-related works by Canadians. The event is important for singers, producers and songwriters, along with many of their fans. There are several performances throughout the show as well. It’s similar to the Grammy Awards, but for Canadian talent only.
Album of the Year awards are usually up for grabs in a variety of genres including pop, rock, rap, country, jazz and more. It’s a great honour to be nominated for any JUNO Awards, but the most sought-after trophies include Artist of the Year, Album of the Year and Single of the Year, none of which are limited to specific genres.
In recent years the awards show has taken place in Halifax, Edmonton and Toronto. The 54th edition of the JUNO Awards is in Vancouver in 2025. This year marks the fifth time the event has taken place in our city. Popular singer and songwriter Michael Bublé hosts the show.
When and Where are the JUNOS in 2025
In 2025 the JUNO Awards takes place on Sunday, March 30th. The event begins at 5:00 pm and likely runs for three hours or so.
