Worthy FM is the onsite radio station of the festival and has been running in it’s current set-up for over 15 years.
We broadcast on 87.7 FM and online during the festival, for one week only, starting 9am Monday 24th June to midnight on Monday July 1st.
The station caters for festival goers and listeners at home who want to experience the fun from afar. We’re all about reflecting the atmosphere and activities across the entire festival site, promoting the festival’s good causes, and providing an extra source of official information festival goers need to know. We also cover all the rounds of the festival’s Emerging Talent Contest (ETC) and produce a daily show featuring the performers and the contest.
The station is run by a regular volunteer crew. Each year, we reserve a number of crew places for new volunteers who are chosen through a national competition.

DADDY TEACHA – GONE, BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
For the last hour of our Worthy FM 2023 broadcast we produced a tribute to our longest serving presenter Daddy Teacha who died after a short illness in May 2023. He presented his first show in 1992 and never missed a broadcast since. His reggae shows were popular all around the Festival site.
Teacha presented his last show at 11pm on ‘exit Monday’ in 2022. We gathered memories from those who loved and worked with him, and delved into the archives of his past shows, to bring you a very special tribute to the man himself.
This was aired at 11pm on Monday 26th June 2023. If you missed it, pour yourself a glass of rum and enjoy listening here.
