Potential host city bids
In September 2015, the Capital Region Music Awards Society in Victoria, British Columbia announced its intention to bid for hosting the 2018 Juno Awards. Victoria made a bid tp host the 2014 Junos, but that year's ceremonies were hosted in Winnipeg.[3]
In April 2016, various groups in Edmonton were also investigating a potential bid for the 2018 Juno Awards. The city previously hosted the Junos in 2004.[4]
In early April 2017, Vancouver was announced as the 2018 Juno Awards host after the 2017 awards concluded.[5] On April 19, 2017, it was announced that CBC Television would take over broadcast rights to the Junos beginning in 2018.[6]
