Voice FM is Ballarat’s independent not-for-profit community broadcaster that was established in 1982. It secured a full licence in May 1986 and has been operating with a great team of volunteers ever since.

We think of ourselves as providing a real alternative to other broadcasters. Each of our programs is unique, with all our presenters playing their own choice of music that they love and enjoy, so you will be sure to get a wide variety of music, information, news and views from the programs presented.
Of course, it goes without saying that we are foremost in supporting many local artists, bands and events.

The registered name of the co-operative is the Ballarat Community FM Radio Co-operative Limited under the Co-operatives Act (1996), and the licence is classed as a community broadcasting licence under the Broadcast Services Act (1992), servicing a general geographic area, and originally broadcasting as 3BBB.

3BBB is now known as 99.9 Voice FM – Ballarat’s own community radio station – broadcasts 24 hours a day, seven days a week and is proud to be part of our community.
