Awards

Daniel Caesar to Perform and Receive International Achievement Award at 2026 Juno Awards

Acclaimed singer-songwriter William Prince will also perform, while actor/comedian Mae Martin will host and Sandy Pandya, Vinny Cinquemani and Alexander Mair will receive special industry awards.

Soul/R&B superstar Daniel Caesar will both perform at the 55th Annual Juno Awards and receive the international achievement award at the event, set for Hamilton's new TD Coliseum on Sunday, March 29, 2026.

Daniel Caesar's Juno honour reflects the global impact of a career now encompassing four albums. He is still riding high from last year's Son of Spergy, which became his third top 10 album on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart. Caesar recently returned to popular NPR performance series Tiny Desk.
