Six reasons to promote your event on radio
Targeted advertising
Target listeners who are already interested in the type of music or activity at your upcoming event.
Get started quickly
Short lead time and flexible scheduling means you can start promoting your event in just a few days.
Local listeners
Reach local listeners who are likely to travel to your event with a targeted alternative to regional and online media.
Low avoidance
Radio commercials are broadcast regularly, and listeners tend to spend a long time listening each week.
Call to action
Encourage listeners to buy tickets or register for an event online while they are listening to the radio with a strong call to action.
Radio is popular
Every week 87% of the population listen to the radio and on average a listener tunes in for 20 live hours a week. RAJAR/Ipsos MORI/RSMB Q4 2019
