3.3 Million Kiwis Listening To Commercial Radio

From a high country farm to a high rise apartment, commercial radio is everywhere we are.


Radio keeps us up to date 24/7 on the latest news as it happens, and in increasingly uncertain times, radio is our companion, our communicator and a voice for all Kiwis.


With 3.3 million New Zealanders listening to commercial radio each week, advertising with radio is the best way to connect with your potential customers.


New Zealand has more frequencies per capita than anywhere else in the world, which means it can be tricky to determine which brands best align with your business. Our 'Find Your Ideal Station' tool will help you to narrow down what station mix could be right for you.


If you'd like a more in depth analysis of the audiences reached by each station, you can read the latest radio survey results here.



The Radio Bureau helps agencies navigate the New Zealand radio landscape, with the ability to plan and place advertising on all commercial radio stations. However if you're a small business or prefer to book your advertising direct, you can reach out to our network partners.
