Australia’s online gay radio station OX Live has built a studio within Sydney’s premier gay and lesbian nightspot, the Stonewall Hotel.
The studio is the only publicly accessible radio facility in Sydney, and will see DJs simulcast live on-air while rocking the packed dance floor on Friday and Saturday nights.
As an official Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras media partner, OX Live is hosting the Mardi Gras DJ Spin-Off competition, allowing up-and-coming DJs to compete for their own set at a Mardi Gras event in 2014. Every Thursday at 3pm Mardi Gras Live show provides the latest information on the upcoming 2014 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras. On the March 1 2014, OX Live will also be hosting the official Mardi Gras top 100 gay hits countdown, warming audiences up for the parade that evening.
OX Live’s celebrity interviews and special events are also being held from the top floor studio at the Stonewall Hotel.
Stonewall manager Glenn Hansen said: “Over the last 15 years we have constantly evolved and improved our offering to ensure Stonewall is welcoming and entertaining for both local and international visitors. Having Sydney’s gay radio station based within the hotel will further enhance the Stonewall experience. Stonewall is a Sydney institution and extremely popular with our audience,” says OX Live founder Brooklyn Ross. “We can’t wait to see our listeners in person at Stonewall!”
OX Live (Oxford Street Live) is available online or through the free smartphone app “OX Live” on the App Store and Google Play.
