About ABC Radio Perth

Its area takes in Perth, Fremantle, Joondalup and the nearby towns. It is part of ABC Local Radio, the network of ABC stations serving each capital city and region.

The ABC is Australia's national public broadcaster, funded by the federal government, so its stations carry no commercial advertising.
Local news and conversation
Weekday programmes are made in Perth for Western Australians: breakfast with news, interviews and the morning's stories, mornings with current affairs, talkback and interviews on WA issues, afternoons with guests, books and culture, and drive with the day's news. ABC news bulletins run on the hour.
Western Australian time
Because Western Australia is two or three hours behind the eastern states, ABC Radio Perth makes many of its own programmes and adjusts national ones to local time, so its listeners get Perth's news at Perth's hours.
Emergency broadcasting
ABC Radio Perth is an official emergency broadcaster. During bushfires, storms and extreme heat it carries warnings and updates from WA's emergency services, which many Western Australians follow during the fire season.
Sport and weekends
Football, cricket and other sports are regular topics, and ABC Sport's commentary is on the ABC's sport channel, also on this site. Weekends bring gardening, food, music and community stories.
