The Community Broadcasting Association of Australia today congratulates finalists in the 2015 CBAA Community Radio Awards.

Announcing the finalists, CBAA Chief Executive Officer Jon Bisset said:

“This year saw some significant changes to the awards with renewed criteria, a simplified entry and judging system and a significantly enlarged number of judges. The result has seen the Awards receive a record number of entries judged by almost 100 expert individuals from the community broadcasting sector and beyond.”

The full list of finalists across 18 categories is below.

The winners of these, along with the Michael Law and Tony Staley Awards, will be announced at an Awards Gala Dinner being held on Saturday, 14 November at the Crowne Plaza in Terrigal NSW. This coincides with the CBAA’s annual national community broadcasting conference.
