ARN’s Hot Tomato is still piping hot, dominating the state of play in GfK Survey 2 of 2025 for the Gold Coast.

The station maintains a healthy lead among all people 10+ (+ 0.4 to 18.9), more than 6 share points clear of its nearest competitor Triple M Gold.

Hot Tomato extended its winning streak, notching up a 16^th consecutive survey as the Gold Coast’s leading radio station.

Galey and Emily Jade still rule the roost in Breakfast (+0.1 to an 18.6 share), with Hot Tomato also seeing solid share gains in Mornings and Drive.

Triple M Gold breakfast with Leisel Jones, Liam Flanagan and Peter ‘Spida’ Everitt is second in that timeslot (+0.7 to 12.6) with Sea FM’s Bronte and Lakey holding down third (+0.3 to 9.1).

Hot Tomato Content Director Brendon “Whippy” Dangar said “We came, we broadcast, we dominate. We’re super proud of the team and the results we have achieved. Big love to the team for keeping the radio Gods happy.”

Michael Harvey, ARN Chief Regional Officer, said “Hot Tomato’s continued success is a testament to the power of local connection – with audiences, clients, and community. It’s driven by a passionate, hardworking team who understand what matters most to the Gold Coast. This isn’t just about leading the ratings – it’s about consistently delivering great content and genuine results for our listeners and clients. That’s what this team does so well, day in and day out.”

SCA Head of Regional Content and Gold Coast General Manager Blair Woodcock said “Congratulations to our team on the Gold Coast on today’s fantastic result – we’re thrilled to once again see SCA as the #1 radio network on the Gold Coast.”

“Sea FM continue to grow the ‘Audience That Matters’ – the 25-54 demo – as Bronte & Lakey (Bronte Langbroek and Danny Lakey) become the #2 Breakfast show in the demo. As Bronte & Lakey continue their search for the Gold Coast’s Best Teacher, they’re continuing to connect with localised, relevant content.”

“On Triple M Gold, we’re proud to see strong growth with 166,000 weekly listeners. The powerhouse Breakfast team of Leisel Jones, Liam & Spida, followed by The Rush Hour with Dobbo & Elliott, is clearly resonating with audiences and a testament to the hard work and consistency of the teams.

“Well done to our hard-working team on the Goldie on today’s promising results, and for continuing to be the #1 network on the Gold Coast.”
