The awards will be broadcast and streamed live across Canada on CBC TV and CBC Gem at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT, and globally on CBC Music's YouTube channel.
Here's a look at the performers for this year's show.
Aqyila
With more than 128 million worldwide streams and three billion short-form video views, Toronto R&B artist Aqyila's debut single, Vibe for Me (Bob for Me), earned her a Juno nomination in 2021 for contemporary R&B recording of the year, marking the beginning of her rise as a songwriter.
Aqyila has two nominations this year, for traditional R&B/soul recording (for Limbo) and contemporary R&B recording (Bloom).
Josh Ross
This country performer co-leads this year's nominations (alongside Tate McRae) with a total of five, including TikTok Juno fan choice, single (for Single Again), album (Complicated), country album, and artist of the year.
The former collegiate football player from Burlington, Ont., pairs a dark, mellow blast of modern country rock with a warm vocal rasp, heart-on-his-sleeve writing and addictive hooks that respect no borders — genre or otherwise.
Nemahsis
The music of Nemahsis, a rising Palestinian Canadian singer and songwriter from Milton, Ont., explores themes of identity and belonging, often drawing on her experiences as a hijabi Muslim woman.
This year, Nemahsis is a first-time nominee for three Junos, including breakthrough artist or group, The Government of Canada and Canada's Private Radio Broadcasters,????alternative album and songwriter of the year.

Snotty Nose Rez Kids
Known for their high-energy live shows, the Indigenous hip-hop duo from the Haisla Nation in British Columbia burst onto the music scene in 2016 and have performed more than 100 shows across six countries.
Snotty Nose Rez Kids have three Juno nominations this year, including rap single, rap album/EP and contemporary Indigenous artist or group of the year.
Tia Wood
Born in Saddle Lake Cree Nation in central Alberta, a community of about 6,000 people in Treaty 6 territory, Wood seamlessly blends modern influences with the music of her Indigenous roots. This rich background laid the foundation for her debut, Pretty Red Bird, released in September 2024.
Wood is a first-time Juno Award nominee this year, for contemporary Indigenous artist or group of the year. Tia's father, Earl Wood, is a founding member of the legendary group Northern Cree, who are also nominated for a 2025 Juno award.
