Dates set for Triple M rebrand in Newcastle and Townsville

SCA has scheduled a name change for 4TOFM Townsville and KOFM Newcastle. 

Both will become Triple M stations – Townsville on Monday, September 3 followed by Newcastle on Friday, November 9.

These additions will bring the Triple M network across Australia to 36 stations, plus four digital Triple M stations. 

SCA management assures us that both markets will continue to produce local shows and content for their listeners, that’s Pricey for Breakfast in Townsville and Tanya & Steve in Newcastle, plus provide the widest variety of music, sport and comedy. 

In addition, Kennedy Molloy with Mick Molloy and Jane Kennedy will be heard each weekday afternoon from 4pm-6pm, as well as the Triple M NRL call from Thursday – Sunday during footy season. 

With one Triple M, listeners will have access to more contests and bigger prizes.

SCA’s Head of Content for Regional Radio, Mickey Maher said, “We are proud and passionate about the communities we are part of and the local content we deliver. We’re excited to bring one of the country’s most iconic media brands, Triple M to Newcastle and Townsville.”
