About BBM 98.7 FM

BBM 98.7FM is the radio service of Bumma Bippera Media in Cairns, created to amplify Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voices across Far North Queensland. The station blends contemporary music with Indigenous artists, conversations with local leaders, community announcements, and timely news relevant to Cairns and surrounding communities. Programs highlight language, culture, health, education, and events, giving space to stories that reflect the region’s identity and priorities on a daily basis.

Listeners hear interviews with Elders, youth perspectives, and updates on services, while outside broadcasts connect audiences to festivals, ceremonies, and sporting fixtures. Regular bulletins, weather, and emergency information support daily life, and partnerships with local organisations help surface opportunities and services. Whether on air in Cairns or via the live stream, BBM keeps First Nations audiences informed, proud, and connected to community and country.
