Marking the first return to Saskatoon in nine years, Country Music Week 2026 and the 2026 CCMA Awards will once again shine a national spotlight on the City of Bridges, a community celebrated for its vibrant arts scene, rich musical roots, and unmatched prairie hospitality. Located along the South Saskatchewan River, Saskatoon is known for its mix of small-town charm and urban sophistication. From its historic Broadway Avenue and vibrant Riversdale district to award-winning restaurants, Indigenous cultural landmarks, and innovative art galleries, the city offers an exciting and immersive experience for visitors.

This marks the sixth time Saskatchewan has hosted Country Music Week, and the third time Saskatoon has welcomed the CCMA. Over four memorable days of connection, collaboration, and country music, artists, industry, and fans from across Canada will come together to celebrate the best in Canadian country.

The year’s event is made possible through the support of the City of Saskatoon, Discover Saskatoon and Saskatoon Destination Marketing Hotels (SDMH), the Government of Saskatchewan, and the 2026 Host Committee.
