Gemini Awards 2006 in Vancouver at the River Rock Casino

Nov 4, 2006

By Catherine Barr

 

The 21st Annual Gemini Awards, which honour the best in Canadian television, was held last weekend here in Vancouver. This is the first time in its history that the awards have been held here. Celebrities, rock stars, directors and sports personalities alike partied together all weekend long. Then, on Saturday night, it was time to walk the red carpet at the River Rock Casino Resort as the awards gala was broadcast live and the coveted statues were handed out to the winners.
