A tribute to Joni Mitchell is set to take center stage at the 2026 Juno Awards, organizers confirmed this week as plans for the annual Canadian music celebration move forward.
The Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences announced that the ceremony will include a dedicated performance honoring Mitchell’s legacy. The segment is expected to bring together a lineup of artists paying respect to her decades-long career as one of Canada’s most influential songwriters.
Mitchell, whose catalog includes landmark albums such as Blue and Court and Spark, has long been regarded as a defining voice in folk and popular music. Her work has earned multiple Grammy Awards and a place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Over the years, her songs have been covered and studied for their poetic lyrics and innovative compositions.
