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.[3][4]

Televised ceremony

Performers included:[7]

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.[8]

Robin Thicke was originally scheduled to perform, but cancelled his appearance shortly before the broadcast, claiming that he was under a "mandatory vocal rest".[9]
