Canal 3 turns 30
Canal 3 first went on the air on Feb. 29, 1984. The Biel-based local radio station is celebrating this milestone during its anniversary week, from Feb. 24 to 28, with special segments, promotions, and music.
As there is no February 29 this year, the first highlight of the celebration will be on Friday, February 28: "There will be 80s music all day, after all Canal 3 was founded during this time," says Denise Bolle, Head of Programs at Canal 3.
Denise Bolle announced in Wednesday's press release that a special event is planned for each month thereafter. March will continue with two people who have grown up at Canal 3: Mario Torriani, Head of Presentation at SRF 3, and Noah Veraguth, singer from Pegasus, will each present a morning show on Canal 3.
The highlight of the anniversary will be a party on Friday, October 24, 2014, at the Kufa Lyss with a showcase by Anna Rossinelli and Marc Sway. Tickets for this party are not available to buy, you can only win them at Canal 3. The first tickets will be raffled off on February 28, 2014 on the channel.
