The organizers behind the Junos have announced that the canceled Juno Awards for 2020 will be announced after all and will be showcased virtually on Monday, June 29th
Back in March, Saskatchewan was to host the national stage in Saskatoon’s SaskTel Center with the Juno’s Awards. But the ceremony had to be canceled due to the spread of COVID-19.
“We are thrilled to finally announce the 2020 Juno winners and recognize all of the incredibly talented artists who’ve been waiting patiently since we had to, unfortunately, cancel Juno Week in Saskatoon,” CARAS/The Juno Awards and MusiCounts president and CEO Allan Reid explains.
