ARN all-stars return ready for 2020 backed by marketing campaigns
• All campaigns roll out across digital and social channels this week
Across Australia, with the exception of Brisbane’s 97.3, ARN metro radio stations hosted the return of their breakfast stars this week.
At KIIS 106.5 Kyle Sandilands was back from Los Angeles in time for his first show and straight back into the tabloid headlines. Jackie O returned from her traditional Fiji break.
At sister station WSFM Brendan Jones started his 30th year in radio. Over the break Jonesy stayed home as per normal while Amanda went on a safari holiday with the family to Africa.
In Melbourne Christian O’Connell was back after a break in Byron Bay. He and co-host Jack Post interrupted their break with a special bushfire breakfast show earlier this month. Pats went on a family holiday to the USA.
To support the returning stars, ARN has launched new marketing campaigns to kick start the new year for Sydney’s KIIS 1065 and WSFM, Melbourne’s GOLD104.3 plus Jase and PJ at KIIS 101.1, the reformed trio of Robin, Terry and Bob at Brisbane’s 97.3FM, Jodie and Soda at Adelaide’s Mix102.3 (where Erin Phillips is standing in for Jodie at present) and Perth’s 96FM with radio legends Fred Botica and Lisa Shaw.
