About This Station

**Jazz88.FM** is the Twin Cities' dedicated voice for jazz and roots music, operating as a 100% listener-supported station and a program of the Minneapolis Public Schools. Broadcasting from Minneapolis, Minnesota, this full-time jazz station is one of the highest-rated in the nation and was named the 2023 Ampers Station of the Year. Beyond its core jazz and roots music format, the station enhances its local programming with MnDOT traffic reports during morning and evening drives, as well as BBC World News updates. A key part of its identity is its hands-on educational program, which offers students real-world experience in broadcasting and production. As a self-supporting service, Jazz88 relies heavily on individual listener donations to keep its music, news, and educational initiatives on the air.
