Audacy announced it is launching Audacy Sports, a new name which covers their over-the-air, streaming, podcasts and live events. Audacy has 40 owned-and-operated all-sports radio stations along with 160 sports streaming channels on the Audacy app and a sports podcast network featuring over 600 titles and live events. This announcement follows Audacy’s recent unveiling of Audacy Podcasts.
“We’re thrilled to bring together our unrivaled sports portfolio under Audacy Sports,” said Lee Davis, Senior Vice President of Sports Monetization, Audacy. “Consolidating our cross-platform sellable assets under one name creates a compelling opportunity for brands to connect with listeners at scale – through our digital and broadcast network platforms or locally, through our owned sports stations – wherever and whenever they tune into Audacy content.”
Audacy Sports also serves as the home to 150 professional and collegiate teams and produces two national multiplatform sports networks, Infinity Sports Network and BetQL Network.
Audacy Sports launches at the NFL Draft in Detroit as it will have five stations broadcasting from the same location near the draft. 670 The Score in Chicago, WEEI in Boston, 97.1 The Ticket in Detroit, 106.7 The Fan and The Team 980 in Washington D.C. will all take part in special draft week broadcasts.
