Mitchell, a four-time Juno winner, is being recognized for her trailblazing, decades-long career and her impact on music culture around the world. She was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 1981.
Furtado’s induction into the Hall of Fame will celebrate her chart-topping success over the years, her numerous Juno, Grammy and Latin Grammy wins and her impact on the pop landscape since the early 2000s. She joins recent inductees Sum 41, Maestro Fresh Wes, Nickelback, Deborah Cox and Jann Arden.
The Junos are returning to Hamilton for the first time in a decade, and hometown heroes Arkells will be gracing the stage. Toronto band the Beaches will also be performing.
Both bands are Juno mainstays: The Arkells have won nine Junos (six for group of the year) since 2010 and the Beaches have won all five awards they've been nominated for since 2018.
“Hamilton has always been a city that lives and breathes music,” said CARAS president and CEO Allan Reid.
“To return here with an incredible lineup that includes Joni Mitchell and Nelly Furtado — two of Canada’s most influential artists — is a fitting way to celebrate our country’s rich musical legacy.”
It was also announced that the Junos and MusiCounts are teaming up for a special industry exchange, connecting 10 music educators with 10 local musicians from Hamilton for a community-building and hands-on learning opportunity.
