About Magic Wellington

Magic Wellington is an oldies-format internet radio station based in Wellington, New Zealand, that mainly plays classic hits and oldies music from the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. It targets New Zealand’s growing population of baby boomers with a lineup of veteran broadcasters. The station is part of the New Zealand radio network MediaWorks New Zealand. It is designed especially for older audiences who enjoy nostalgic popular music. The station’s breakfast show (formerly Magic in the Morning, Magic Breakfast, and Bunting in the Morning, respectively) is hosted by Mark McCarron. It typically features well-known artists such as Elvis Presley, The Beach Boys, Roy Orbison, and Dusty Springfield, representing music that shaped earlier decades of popular culture. Magic also operated Magic Music as its music leg. The station was created to target listeners aged 50–74, a demographic that tends to listen to radio frequently.
