SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) - Avanza 88.3 is one of the only radio stations in the nation, and the first in Utah, broadcasting in a bilingual format.
At a launch party Thursday night, the station celebrated one year on the air with a big party with musical entertainment from local Latino singer-songwriters Detzany, Jazzy Olivo and Heber Matute.
Avanza 88.3 Program Director Edgar Zúñiga says, "Now more than ever, we really need to come together and celebrate what makes us unique and the contributions that we bring."
Just one year in, the station has big plans to expand their coverage by launching a new mobile app and reach Ogden at the end of the fall season, with even more plans to soon reach Provo.
For now, listeners can find Avanza on 88.3 FM in Salt Lake County, statewide on PBS subchanne
