About the station

About Cairns FM 89.1

Cairns FM is a community radio station in Cairns, Far North Queensland. It broadcasts on 89.1 FM under the call sign 4CCR. On this page you can listen to Cairns FM live online, free and without an app.

Local voices

Cairns FM's programmes are made by and for the people of Cairns, including the northern beaches, Edmonton, Gordonvale and the surrounding suburbs, with local news, community announcements, interviews and information about events, clubs and organisations.

Music

The station plays a broad mix of music, from pop and rock to country, reggae, jazz and favourites of past decades, with specialty programmes presented by volunteers who love each style, and programmes for the city's cultural communities.

The area

Cairns is the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree, a tropical city with a large Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community and many visitors. During the wet season, local stations help pass on cyclone and flood information alongside ABC Far North.

Volunteers

The station is run largely by volunteers, many of whom present their own programmes, and it is supported by its members, local sponsors and listeners. It also trains new presenters and gives local groups and causes a place on air.

Community radio

Australia has one of the world's largest community radio sectors, with hundreds of not-for-profit stations run largely by volunteers and supported by their listeners, sponsors and grants. They give airtime to local voices, local music and local information that commercial radio rarely reaches, and they are often the only station made in their own suburb or town.

Other stations

On this site you will also find ABC Far North, hit 103.5, Triple M Cairns, Star 102.7 and Black Star.

Listen anywhere

The online stream works on any phone, tablet or computer, so you can listen at home, at work or beyond the station's local FM coverage, and former residents can keep up with home.
