The KIIS Network is an Australian commercial radio stations owned and operated by the ARN. Formerly branded as the Mix Network, the network was rebranded as the KIIS Network in 2015 following the relaunch of KIIS 101.1 Melbourne. The KIIS Network is named after KIIS-FM, a Los Angeles based radio station broadcast on the 102.7 MHz FM band.
History
In November 2014, ARN announced that from January 2015 a year after the demise of Mix 101.1 in Melbourne and the successful rebranding of KIIS 106.5 in Sydney earlier that year, the Mix Network would be rebranded as the KIIS Network, with KIIS 101.1 alongside KIIS 106.5, 97.3FM and Mix 102.3.[1] The Brisbane and Adelaide stations retained their respective station names and music formats, but adopted the same branding themes inline with their KIIS sister stations. Mix 106.3 in Canberra is also a part of the network, but predominantly carries its own programming. An announcement of their branding being realigned to the rest of the KIIS Network was made in December 2019.
