Celebration planned for 50th anniversary of Plymouth Sound launch

Former staff at Plymouth Sound are organising special reunion to celebrate 50 years since the launch of the station.

Plymouth Sound launched in May 1975 and an event will be hosted in the station’s old studios, at Earls Acre in Plymouth, Devon.

The event is on Saturday 17th May, just two days before the 50th anniversary of Plymouth Sound’s launch.

Organiser Gavin Marshall, who is a previous Presenter and Regional Director for the station told RadioToday: “It’s so incredible that we have been able to secure full access to the old studio complex for this celebration.

“It’s the only time this will be able to happen, as the building is currently being sold.

“We have lots of exciting plans to make it an amazing day, and I’d love for RadioToday to help us spread the word, so that old colleagues can join us.”
