Community Radio Hamilton Open Day

18 February 2011 - 0 Comments

Community Radio Hamilton gets loud and proud with their open day event The Big Bang! on Saturday 12 March. Featuring a line-up of drum beats from around the world, the annual celebration of Access Radio in the Waikato kicks off from 1-4pm outside the station studios in the ASB Building, 214 Collingwood Street, Hamilton.

The diverse range of acts reflects the station's eclectic sound and includes Jamaican rhythms from the CarribeaNZ Southern Stars steelpan band, upbeat tempos of ska band Jacquemo, and Pacific beats courtesy of the Hamilton Cook Island Association's musicians and dancers. The local Drum Circle will give the crowd a hands-on role in their performance, while the Hare Krishna community and Hamilton Girls High School samba band are sure to have people on their feet. There will also be a farewell performance from gumboot dance crew Swamp Stomp.

"Our open days are a fun way for us to showcase the diverse sound of Community Radio Hamilton, and the wide range of individuals and groups who are involved with the station," explains general manager Phil Grey. "Whether it's hosting your own show, or just having the chance to come in for an on-air interview. This really is 'Your Place' and we hope people will come and make themselves at home!"

Visitors will have a chance to tour the station and its live broadcast studio. There will also be some great food on offer, including a barbecue, and Latin pastries from La Rosa Bakery. A number of local organisations will also be part of a community marketplace at the event.
