Radio Room Rental

The Radio Room at KAFM just might be the perfect venue for your group's gathering.  The Radio Room can be configured as a conventional 75-seat auditorium with impeccable acoustics.

Or, you may choose to set up the room with multiple tables and a more flexible seating configuration that is suitable for a party or smaller groups.  Such an arrangement is great for workshops and seminars.

However you choose to use the room, you can be assured of a great facility and the complete cooperation of KAFM's expert staff as well as a menu of services and unmatched promotional assistance that is guaranteed to help make your event a success.

For more information, call KAFM at 241-8801, ext. 210.
