Listeners’ votes count in the MTN Radio Awards

Although adjudication of the MTN Radio Awards entries is done by a panel of radio and media specialists, listeners also have a say in the awards, particularly in the ‘My Station’ category.

By sending a SMS vote with the code of their favourite station, listeners not only show their love for the station, but also put themselves in line to win an incredible prize which comprises: Two return air tickets to the USA on Delta Air Lines with three nights’ accommodation for two people sharing in Florida – with the choice of Miami/Fort Lauderdale/Tampa/Orlando; two tickets to attend the MTN Radio Awards Gala Banquet; and a smartphone with R 500 airtime.

There are two sections to the My Station competition as far as stations go: the first being the station that generates the most votes and the second being the station that has the most loyal listeners, which is the ratio of votes measured against the station’s Radio Audience Measurement Survey (RAMS) listenership figures.

SMS votes need to be sent to the short code number 40616. Full details of the station codes, as well as terms and conditions of the competition are available on the MTN Radio Awards website at https://www.mtnradioawards.co.za/mtn_mystation.html

The 2015 MTN Radio Awards Gala Banquet takes place on Saturday April 18, at the Sandton Convention Centre. Tickets are available by contacting Michelle McBride on 011 280 3000 or email michellem@thefuture.co.za
