The Waiheke Community Radio Trust has established Waiheke Radio as a not-for-profit, community radio service for Waiheke Island. This service provides radio programming that reflects the unique character and needs of the Waiheke community. In addition the service offers facilities, advice, training and technical support for Waiheke people to make and broadcast their own radio programmes.

The Trust has been granted a month-by-month community lease on a space in Artworks, the old Beach Radio site, and has made numerous modifications to that space to serve the community with a fully functional radio station.

Waiheke Radio broadcasts on Low Power FM on 107.4 from Oneroa to Surfdale, and 88.3 from Surdale to Onetangi.

For more information see: http://www.waihekeradio.org.nz


If you are interested in participating in the development and continued running of Waiheke Radio please see our Expression of Interest Form . The form can either be filled out online or printed out and delivered to P.O.Box 28, Oneroa.

Every Sunday night between 9:00 - 9:30pm Waiheke Radio brings you 'The Comedy Half Hour'. Given that we're currently planning to run it for an hour we may well have to think of a new name but I think you get the picture.

Currently running each week are the original award winning BBC recordings of Flight of the Conchords.

The series, which was originally broadcast on Radio 2 in September 2005, was almost entirely recorded on a portable mini-disc machine in a variety of locations around London. Bret, Jemaine, Rhys and a coterie of eminent stand up comedians and actors improvised scenes and sung songs around Hyde Park, The Tower of London, Piccadilly Circus, even the first aid room at Broadcasting House. Music for the series was written and performed by the Flight of the Conchords and produced by them with the assistance of Neil Pickles, a music producer whose credits include Basement Jaxx, Groove Armada and Turin Brakes.
