ONAIRversary 2026

ON - AIR - versary is our way of celebrating the anniversary of CFUZ hitting the community radio airwaves in Penticton, in early February 2019. Each year, our volunteers gather together to raise energy and awareness for community radio, and inspire our listeners to donate in support of CFUZ - your 100% volunteer powered radio station. February 7, 2026


This year, every delicious donation RAISES THE TEMPERATURE in our kitchen, consistently working towards our $20,000 goal!

Try not to open the oven too often, but keep that heat cranked, so that your deliciously local community radio station can bake to its full potential!

Come visit us at the CFUZ studios in the Cannery Trade Centre 1475 Fairview Rd, Penticton.

Come and see what your donation dollars have helped us to build!
