What is National Radio Day?

National Radio Day celebrates the enduring medium that has connected communities since Heinrich Hertz's discovery of radio waves and Guglielmo Marconi's early transmissions. The date recalls Detroit's 8MK station's first broadcast in 1920, honoring radio's continuing role in music, news, and companionship.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
