Our Awards

The National Radio Awards is an annual event that recognises the best in Irish radio. While WLR is a local station with smaller production teams than many of the regional and national stations, we still pack a serious punch when it comes to bringing home awards (so much so, that the shelf our awards were displayed on collapsed under the weight of them all recently!)
We have also won 2 GAA McNamee Awards for Best Radio Programme, produced and presented by the late Kevin Casey.
