This concert commemorated the company’s 40th anniversary, serving as a testament to the loyal listeners, past employees, and partners who have played pivotal roles throughout CFL’s four-decade journey.
CFL chairperson William Parkinson expressed how meaningful it was to celebrate the organization’s history and recognize those who have contributed to its success. He emphasized the familial atmosphere of the event, stating, “We try to make it all about family. This is a really special moment for us.”
The concert featured a nostalgic mix of musical performances that showcased the evolution of CFL’s broadcasting, including early stars like Laisa Vulakoro and Seru Serevi, alongside contemporary musicians such as Kuki, Marama, and Ciwa.

The company has consistently demonstrated its dedication to informing and educating the public, especially during national emergencies.
With its 40-year legacy, CFL stands at a hopeful juncture, focusing on enhancing its programming and outreach. The concert’s success is a reminder of the strong ties it has forged within the community, promising a bright future for Fijian media that resonates well beyond the airwaves.
