On Thursday, November 14, CKCU 93.1 FM marked a major milestone—celebrating the start of its 50th year of broadcasting! The station kicked off its golden anniversary with a special two-hour live broadcast starting at 11:59 pm.

After a countdown to midnight, CKCU played its very first song ever broadcast: Joni Mitchell's You Turn Me On, I'm A Radio—and, in true CKCU fashion, it was played on vinyl. The airwaves were then filled with cheers, reminiscing, and heartfelt reflections from alumni, staff, and current hosts who have been part of the station’s journey.

A major highlight of the night was the live performance by Central Station, marking the first live music broadcast in CKCU’s 50th year. Alongside the performance, listeners heard from a diverse group of people who have been pivotal in shaping the station.

If you missed the live broadcast—or just want to relive the magic—you can listen to a recording of the entire 50th anniversary special on our website. It’s a truly special way to experience the heart and soul of CKCU, from its early days to the vibrant station it is today.
