The global superstar will come to the celebration at Rebel in Toronto to accept Billboard Canada’s first-ever Global Woman of the Year award on November 24. 

Cardi B will be a guest of honour at Billboard Canada Women In Music 2026, where she will be honoured for her influence and accomplishments worldwide. She will bring her unmatched charisma and style to the star-studded celebration to accept the award. In less than a decade since her breakout single “Bodak Yellow” shot to the top of the Billboard charts, Cardi has made an undeniable impact on the global music landscape. She’s filled the record books with accomplishments, including in Canada, where she has racked up 46 charting songs on the Billboard Canadian Hot 100, including eight top 10 hits. This year’s Little Miss Drama Tour was a completely sold-out arena tour throughout North America, another historic feat for a female rapper, including highlight shows at Vancouver’s Rogers Arena, Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena and Hamilton’s TD Coliseum.

In a career full of accolades, she has maintained her unfiltered, vulnerable and often hilarious charisma and her impeccable style — which she will bring to Billboard Canada Women In Music — as well as her unbreakable flow, which merges seamlessly with hard-hitting beats, pop hooks and Latin rhythms.

This year’s third edition of Billboard Canada Women In Music will be more global than ever, bringing together Canada’s most exciting musicians with the biggest names across the world — as well as luminaries from across the music industry.
