The Juno Awards of 1993, representing Canadian music industry achievements of the previous year, were awarded on 21 March 1993 in Toronto at a ceremony in the O'Keefe Centre. Celine Dion was the host for the ceremonies, which were broadcast on CBC Television at 8 pm Toronto time. This year, all performers at the ceremonies would be Canadians, in contrast to some ceremonies in previous years.
Nominations were announced 9 February 1993. Celine Dion received 7 nominations, tying the record set by Bryan Adams at the 1992 awards. Bryan Adams and Tom Cochrane were prominent male nominees this year.
