Radio 1 is a Belgian radio channel operated by the Flemish public broadcaster Vlaamse Radio- en Televisieomroep (VRT).

The channel focuses on news (with bulletins every half hour), together with discussion and debate on public policy and social issues. Radio 1 also carries live coverage of sporting events, branded "Sporza Radio".

Radio 1's musical content is a mix of contemporary and classic pop and rock music (focusing on Flemish productions), with specialist music programming in the evening schedules.

## Guest programmes

[edit]

Radio 1 regularly allocates a limited amount of airtime for the transmission of so-called "guest programmes": that is to say, programmes produced by associations and organizations representing faith and other socio-philosophical communities recognized by the Flemish Government as having the right to make such broadcasts.[1] At the present time (February 2014) these are:

* Centraal Israëlitisch Consistorie van België [nl] – representing Belgian Judaism
* Evangelische Radio en Televisie Omroep – Evangelical Christian broadcaster
* Radio Gezinsbond  by the Gezinsbond [nl] – defending the interests of the family
* Het Vrije Woord by the Humanistisch-Vrijzinnige Vereniging – representing secularism and free thought
