About Radio Italiana 531

Radio Italiana 531 is South Australia’s premier Italian-language radio station, proudly broadcasting since 1975. For five decades, we’ve been the voice of the Italian-Australian community—connecting generations through language, culture, music, current affairs, and community stories.

 

Based in the heart of Adelaide, our programs celebrate Italy’s rich heritage while embracing today’s evolving multicultural landscape. From classic Italian hits to live event coverage and discussions on topics that matter, Radio Italiana 531 is where tradition meets innovation.

We proudly serve nearly 100,000 South Australians of Italian heritage, with content tailored for both first-generation migrants and newer generations of Italian-Australians. Our reach spans metropolitan Adelaide and most regional areas via our 531 AM frequency, and we now connect with listeners worldwide through:
