About the station

About ABC Northern Tasmania

ABC Northern Tasmania is the ABC's local radio station for the north and north-west of Tasmania. Based in Launceston, it serves Launceston, the Tamar Valley, Devonport, Burnie and the north-west coast on FM and AM transmitters across the region. It is part of ABC Local Radio, the network of ABC stations serving each capital city and region. On this page you can listen to ABC Northern Tasmania live online, free. The ABC is Australia's national public broadcaster, so its stations carry no commercial advertising.

Local news and conversation

ABC Northern Tasmania makes its own local programmes, led by a breakfast show with news, interviews and the morning's stories from the north of the state. At other times it shares programmes with ABC Radio Hobart and the national ABC Local Radio network. ABC news bulletins run on the hour, with Tasmanian news through the day.

Emergency broadcasting

ABC Northern Tasmania is an official emergency broadcaster. Northern Tasmania faces floods, storms and bushfires, and in those events the station carries warnings and updates from Tasmania's emergency services.

The north of Tasmania

The station follows the life of the region: farming and food, forestry, the wine of the Tamar Valley, the Spirit of Tasmania ferries at Devonport, tourism, education in Launceston, and sport, from AFL to cricket. Northern Tasmania has a strong identity of its own, distinct from Hobart, and its local radio reflects that.
