VANCOUVER – Vancouver’s NEWS 1130 is gearing up to celebrate 20 years as that city’s only all-news station.
After joining the airwaves in February 1996, the Rogers-owned station continues to be the Lower Mainland’s go-to source for breaking news, traffic, weather, and sports.
Beginning Friday, February 5, the station will kick off a month-long celebration that will include a walk down memory lane as on-air hosts dive into the biggest stories of the past 20 years and welcome former hosts, staff, and special guests in-studio to share their favourite memories. The NEWS 1130 Insider Club will also be giving away gift packs and prizes all month long, including a chance to win 20,000 Insider points.
Additionally, on Saturday, March 12, NEWS 1130 will host an open house, with guided tours departing every 10 minutes from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, featuring behind-the-scenes access to the studio. The studio is located at 2440 Ash Street, in the Fairview neighbourhood of Vancouver.
