Plains FM is Canterbury’s only access radio station. We provide training and facilities to groups and individuals in Canterbury who wish to make their own radio programmes by, for and about their communities.
Plains FM, named after the Canterbury Plains on which we are situated, broadcasts over 65 regularly scheduled programmes in 17 different languages.
We specifically cater for under represented groups such as women, children and youth, ethnic groups and other minorities.
We broadcast from a transmitter at Sugarloaf over Christchurch, north to Cheviot, south to Ashburton, west to the Southern Alps, and into Lyttelton Harbour on Banks Peninsula.
When access programmes are not broadcasting, Plains FM specialises in a diverse ‘adult alternative’ playlist of jazz, blues, alt country, soul and world music. New Zealand music content averages over 20% per month.
So welcome to our website!
We hope you’ll enjoy listening to the many voices of the Canterbury Plains.
