MFM Radio

Te Reo Irirangi o Maniapoto (MFM) is one of 21 Iwi Radio Satations who broadcast independently throughout Aotearoa on frequencies which are specifically reserved for the promotion of the Maori language and culture. From humble beginnings in a small room along Te Kumi Road, Te Kūiti, we have a rich heritage dating back 25 years. At MFM our work ethic embraces and upholds our well known slogan, 'whanake ake", which means to develop and prosper. Show more MFM broadcasts a mix of live and pre-recorded bilingual shows, designed to target our whānau of Maniapoto. Being Maniapoto owned and operated, we embrace all that happens in our community and help bring iwi events, activities and issues to our listeners both within our on-air broadcast area and around the world via our online activity. We are the only local mainstream radio station based in Te Kūiti. Our modern space includes an upgraded production facility, a "live" studio, several recording studios and an open planned office area to cater for the ever growing world of modern communication and technology.
