where variety comes alive

about your station

Ellenbrook Radio, 88.5 fm was officially launched live to air, the 9th of December 2006.

Our very first show on the air was Concert Hall with John Shriver, a classical music program, Concert Hall is still playing every Sunday starting at 10 p.m. after all these years.

From 2006 we operated with a limited cast license and under the name Ellenbrook Radio 88fm.

On December 3rd, 2015, we were granted a temporary broadcasting license and started broadcasting as Radio VCA 88.5FM.

Recently, “Variety Comes Alive” was added as our tag line.

Over the years we have grown and grown, with more music, more presenters and more variety that you deserve.

The Variety your deserve

Unlike the everyday radio that you might have listened to in the past, We bring you more variety every hour

The variety that we bring to you each week, covers shows like blues, pop, rock, country, local music, and more.

We bring you the variety that you deserve.

Run by Volunteers

Every day, people just like yourself, put in an amazing amount of time and effort to keep the signal coming to you.

From hosting a show to doing paperwork, through to raising funds, we would be lost without our volunteers.

Every Hour of the Day

Unlike other community stations that  end their broadcasts at a certain time, we keep the signal going 24 hrs a day.

Every day of the year

Our commitment to the community is evident every single day – as we broadcast to you 365 days of the year
