The Juno Awards of 2014 honoured Canadian music industry achievements in the latter part of 2012 and in most of 2013. The awards were presented in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada during the weekend of 29–30 March 2014. The main ceremony took place at the MTS Centre and was televised on CTV.

Planning

In October 2012, CARAS announced that it selected Winnipeg as the host city for the 2014 Juno Awards. Winnipeg previously hosted in 2005. The other known bid was from Victoria, British Columbia, which planned to host the primary ceremony at the Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre.

Events

Juno Week events began on 24 March 2014:

• 28–29 March - JunoFest concerts
• 28 March - Juno Cup benefit hockey game at MTS Iceplex
• 29 March - private gala at RBC Convention Centre where most awards were presented
• 30 March - televised ceremony at the MTS Centre, where seven major awards were presented

Televised ceremony

The televised ceremony was hosted by Classified, Johnny Reid and Serena Ryder. Classified and Ryder jointly performed an opening song.

Performers included:

• Gord Bamford
• Dean Brody
• Classified
• Brett Kissel
• Matt Mays
• Sarah McLachlan
• OneRepublic
• Serena Ryder
• The Sheepdogs
• Tegan and Sara
• Walk off the Earth

Dallas Green (City and Colour) cancelled his originally scheduled appearance on the broadcast, citing a wish that a new Juno nominee be allowed to perform instead.

Robin Thicke was originally scheduled to perform, but cancelled his appearance shortly before the broadcast, claiming that he was under a "mandatory vocal rest".

Nominees and winners

The Allan Waters Humanitarian Award was presented to Chantal Kreviazuk and Raine Maida. Frank Davies is the 2014 Walt Grealis Special Achievement Award recipient for his work in the recording industry. Bachman–Turner Overdrive were inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, introduced by astronaut Chris Hadfield.

Nominees were announced on 4 February 2014, based on music released during the eligibility window from 1 September 2012 to 13 November 2013.
