About i98 FM

i98 FM is Wollongong's long-running commercial station for the Illawarra, delivering a hot adult contemporary mix with strong local focus. Listeners rely on frequent news, traffic, and weather updates tailored to Wollongong and surrounding suburbs, plus information about schools, roads, and community services. Across the workday it blends current pop and recent favourites with conversation that reflects life in the region, supporting commuters, tradies, and office workers with timely information and easy company.

Presenters share interviews with local figures and visiting artists, promote gigs, charity drives, and grassroots sport, and highlight stories that matter to Illawarra families. Regular promotions invite participation, and social media extends conversation beyond the studio. The live stream allows listening on phones, computers, and smart speakers, so the audience can stay connected at home, at work, or on the move, with coverage focused on Wollongong and nearby communities.
