What's Going On

Please join us in celebrating our 45th anniversary by showing your support during our Spring Fundraising Drive which will be running from Wednesday April 15th to Sunday April 26th, 2020.

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, Vancouver Co-op Radio is committed to taking the advice given by the Canadian Government and Health Authorities in order to keep our community safe. We will be temporarily closing access to the station for the next 4 - 6 weeks, possibly longer.

We do, however, intend to continue broadcasting over 100.5 FM, online at www.coopradio.org, and over smartphone apps such as TuneIn.

Many of our programmers will continue to produce new weekly shows from their home isolation studios!

It’s with great sadness that we learned of the passing of The One O’ Clock Jump long-time host Lloyd Davis. He joined the station in 1989.

New training materials are now available to get yourself acquainted with RadioDJ!

We have also made a series of videos that will review all of the aspects of Operator training.
