Mark your calendars! Across the USA and the world, over 150 radio stations will celebrate the unique format of vinyl records by going vinyl-only on the air for Vinylthon 2025, on April 12 & 13, 2025.

NEW FOR 2025: This year, we are also planning a live broadcast vinyl dance party – stay tuned for more details. 

Organized by the non-profit College Radio Foundation and open to all radio stations, commercial and non-commercial, Vinylthon is an industry-wide fundraiser supporting vital Next Step Radio Scholarships for students who aspire to become professional radio broadcasters.

Participating stations that broadcast at least 24 hours of vinyl during the event will be presented with the Golden Slipmat Award to recognize their deep passion for vinyl.
