List of radio stations in New Zealand


The following is a list of radio stations in New Zealand.

New Zealand network stations

Several networks operate across multiple centres or nationwide. Most of them have resulted from the consolidation of a group of existing stations and many have changed their name over time. The Sound was previously Solid Gold. TAB Trackside, suspended operations 12 April 2020, was previously LiveSport, BSport and Radio Pacific. Mix, was a reincarnation of Easy Mix, Viva and Easy Listening, and Radio Sport were replaced by Gold on 1 July 2020. The now-defunct Kiwi FM was previously Channel Z. The Wolf also no longer operates.
