Canal d’Or resurfaces after two years

Private television Canal 2 International announced through a teaser broadcast on Monday, January 5, the 10th edition of the award ceremony which has been organised for almost ten years.

A press conference by the Organizing Committee on December 17, 2013 in Douala announced this 10th edition but nothing was heard until this year.

Canal d’Or has thus made a comeback after two years since the last edition in the Palais des Congrès in Yaoundé (March 30, 2013). With the re-launch of the event with the annual awards for artists in Cameroon, concerns already abound in the entertainment community; prominent of them being the selection criteria.

Organisers usually considered performances of artists for one year period and a lot of people are wondering what length of period will be given this time around.

The Organizing Committee of the 10th edition of Canal d’Or announced the need to offer something unique to artists and especially its viewers.
