IMRO was today announced as the title sponsor of the Irish Radio Awards. The IMRO Radio Awards will take place at the Lyrath Estate, Kilkenny on Friday October 6th 2017.
The IMRO Radio Awards recognise the achievements of Irish radio industry personnel both on-air and behind the scenes. In addition to the Outstanding Achievement Award and the IMRO Radio Awards Hall of Fame inductees, 37 Awards will be handed out on the night in what has become one of the highlights of the Irish radio calendar. IMRO has confirmed it will sponsor the Awards for the next five years. The BAI (Broadcasting Authority of Ireland) has also confirmed that it will continue its very valuable support for the Awards.

This is the most important event in the radio calendar and it ensures that the very best standards in Ireland’s radio industry are constantly maintained to the highest possible level”.
