The trucks have started rolling in, as preparations begin for Calgary’s gig hosting the JUNOs Sunday.
JUNOs President Allan Reid tells 660 NEWS, Calgary is a phenomenal host city, and already has a huge focus on music and arts and culture, with the opening of the National Music Centre coming up.
“That’s really been encouraging to see, how music is helping to transform the city, and help things out, because obviously things here, economically, have been tough for the last little while. So, I think the JUNOs have really been a bright light for the community, and something they can focus on and take in too,” Reid said.
Reid says while the awards show is virtually sold out, there is another chance for you to go.
“Once we actually get into the venue, get the stage built, get the screens up and the cameras, we’re going to release probably about 400 to 500 more tickets. Those are called production holds, and some of those are going to be fantastic seats. So that’s Friday morning at 10 a.m., there will be more seats available,” he said.
About 2,500 to 3,000 seats will be filled by industry insiders, while 11,000 will be enjoyed by the public.
