About GOLD 96FM
GOLD 96FM is Perth's classic hits station. It broadcasts on 96.1 FM across Perth under the call sign 6NOW, on a commercial licence for the Perth licence area, and it is the Perth station of ARN's GOLD network. Long known simply as 96FM, it is one of Perth's best-known radio names. On this page you can listen to GOLD 96FM live online, free and without an app.
Just great songs
Like the other GOLD stations, GOLD 96FM's slogan is "Just Great Songs". Its playlist is built on the classic hits and rock of the 70s, 80s and 90s, Australian and international, songs that most listeners grew up with.
A Perth favourite
96FM has been part of Perth radio since the 1980s, when it was one of the city's first commercial FM stations, and generations of West Australians have listened to it. The station's sound has moved from rock to classic hits, but its name has stayed familiar.
Shows
The station has a local Perth breakfast show, followed by music-heavy daytime and drive programmes. Because Western Australia keeps its own time zone, the station's shows are timed for Perth.
The GOLD network
GOLD is ARN's classic hits brand: GOLD104.3 in Melbourne, GOLD101.7 in Sydney, GOLD 96FM in Perth and GOLD1323 in Adelaide, plus digital stations such as GOLD 80s. ARN also runs the KIIS stations. You will find them all on this site.
