6th Gemini Awards

The Academy of Canadian Cinema & Television's 6th Gemini Awards were held in March 1992 to honour achievements in Canadian television. There were no awards issued in 1991, so this year’s awards covered productions from 1991 and 1990. The awards show took place at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre and was broadcast on CBC Television.
