The city of Saskatoon would like to have the Juno Awards back.

Tourism Saskatoon is trying to put together funding so the city can bid for the 2020 Canadian music awards show last held there in 2007.

Tourism Saskatoon CEO Todd Brandt says the city has 3,000 more seats at SaskTel Centre – than the last time it was host.

He estimates the event could generate between $10 million and $12 million in economic activity.

Tourism Saskatoon is working to gather a $1.5-million funding package necessary to submit the bid.
