What is Vinylthon?
Vinylthon is an annual event for radio stations across the USA and the world who want to celebrate the format of vinyl music by playing at least one hour of vinyl-only music on the two days (April 20 & 21, 2024). Many radio stations do more than one hour (some do up to 24 or 48!) but it’s a fun day for both listeners and broadcasters alike. The event is a success because many people are still passionate about vinyl and broadcasting radio shows from only vinyl is an amazing experience for many of today’s radio broadcasters. The event is also a fundraiser for Vinylthon Scholarships, awarded by the College Radio Foundation, a non-profit organization that organizes the Vinylthon event and gives scholarships to college students who want to work in radio. Vinylthon 2024 will be the ninth Vinylthon event.
