Mix 106.3 has enjoyed an outstanding book in the first GfK Survey of the year for Canberra, with significant share increases across Breakfast, Mornings, Afternoons and Drive.

Overall, Mix went up 3.1 among all people 10+ to now sit at 25.3, a long way ahead of its nearest rival Hit 104.7 (+1.5 to 14.7).

The Mix team of Kristen and Nige (main photo) continue to dominate the Breakfast timeslot, rising 5.4 to give them a 26.5 share.

A slight share increase this book sees ABC Canberra move to second spot Breakfast … (+0.2 to 14.6) with Hit now third (-1.2 to 13.3).

The Capital Radio Network says the Canberra Survey 1 results show younger listeners are tuning in to 2CA and 2CC.

2CC increased its share of 18 to 24 year olds, jumping from 0.6% to 9.4% share of listening, while 2CA jumped from a 1.1% share of 18–24-year-olds to 6.9%.

Capital Radio Group Program Director Josh Haizer attributes the survey results to a retro music revival among young people coupled with Gen Z’s shift towards more conservative values.

Capital Radio Chief Operating Officer Michael Jones says it’s pleasing that the stations have broadened their appeal, with younger Canberrans now enjoying the programs offered alongside their parents and grandparents.
