The WFMU Record Fair Is Back!

The annual WFMU Record Fair, which was on-hold during the pandemic, made a soft return last fall, but we’re back at full strength for 2024! We’ll be back at our old haunt, the Metropolitan Pavilion on 18th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues in Manhattan, on Friday, November 1st from 3–9 p.m. and Saturday, November 2nd from 10 a.m.–7 p.m. $10 for regular admission. $30 gets you early admission on Friday (12–3 p.m.) and all day Saturday. Get your two-day pass here. We’ll have live music, food, film, fun activities, and more records under one roof than you can find almost anywhere. If you want to sell at the fair, donate records for it, or volunteer for it, find out all you need to know here.

The Drinks Are On Us! Swag For Life Members – Make a Pledge and Get an Exclusive Pair of Coasters.

If you are a Swag for Life member, you can snag this sweet pair of coasters this October by making any one-time pledge of $25 or more, or by upping your monthly Swag for Life amount. You can pledge one-time here (be sure to click “one-time” even though you are a SFL member), or you can send an e-mail to us at up@wfmu.org telling us how much you would like to increase your monthly pledge by. You won’t see the option to choose the coasters on the pledge page. DO NOT WORRY. We will automatically send it to you with the rest of your swag! May we suggest pledging $75 for the exclusive coasters, a new shirt, and a DJ premium? Visit wfmu.org/donate >

The Hellraiser is Wrapping Up — Please Help Us Reach Our Goal and Pick Up Some Swag Along with Your Pledge.

The Hellraiser is on its way out, we need your help to reach our goal. Every October, WFMU conducts its Hellraiser. It’s an off-air fundraiser conducted mostly by Internet and mail. We don’t make too big of a deal about it (in fact, our DJs only mention it briefly once per show), but the Hellraiser Fundraiser is important for us since it gets us over the hump of the winter months – that time of year when the funds we raised in our spring marathon are beginning to dwindle. If you can, help us out with a donation and grab one of the two new T-shirts exclusive to this fall campaign. Anglerfish design by Maddie Fisher.
