Bendigo brings it

Big upgrades. Big community impact. Bendigo Bank has delivered once again — and Noosa FM is ready to show it off.

Thanks to funding from Bendigo Bank, Noosa FM has undergone a major studio upgrade that sets the station up for an exciting new chapter. With modern broadcasting technology, significantly improved sound quality and expanded training opportunities, the community radio station is now better equipped than ever to amplify local voices and stories.

Community radio plays a vital role in keeping people connected — from local news and emergency updates to grassroots music and community conversations. This investment ensures Noosa FM can continue to inform, entertain and empower the region for years to come.

“Community radio is the heartbeat of local stories. It’s fantastic to see Noosa FM set up for the future,” said Bill Shakoor, Branch Manager at Community Bank Tewantin-Noosa.

To celebrate, Noosa FM is inviting the community to its Show Off Open Day on Saturday 28 February from 2–4pm. Locals are encouraged to drop in, enjoy a sausage sizzle, take a guided tour through the studio and see the upgrades firsthand.

This is more than new equipment — it’s an investment in people, skills and community connection. Bendigo Bank’s support highlights the power of banking with purpose and the impact it can have when profits are reinvested locally.

Come along, have a look behind the scenes, and see how Bendigo Bank is helping Noosa FM broadcast boldly into the future.
