A HISTORY

Your favourite gourmet burger company has its very own radio station - Radio BurgerFuel. Founded in 2012, we've been pumping out tasty beats from our studio since then. We've broadcast live shows from all over Aotearoa and play Radio BurgerFuel in all store nation wide.

Over the years we've chatted with some of the world's best musicians and some homegrown favs in our studio. Think Soundgarden, Ghostface Killah, Fat Freddy's Drop, Wiley, Souls Of Mischief, Andy C, Shapeshifter, The Darkness & Naughty By Nature.

LIVE

We've been blessed with some of our favourite NZ musicians performing live from our HQ including JessB, Church & AP, Mini Simmons & Bailey Wiley. Old school legends Everclear even showed up for a private show one day in 2015 (listen to this exclusive acoustic version of Santa Monica).

And we've also taken it to the streets with epic performances by Dub FX at BurgerFuel Ponsonby, Melodownz at BurgerFuel Henderson and Jed Parsons in Christchurch.

DJs & CUT CLASS

Our amazing crew of DJs from our legendary resident DJ Scizzorhands to up and comers, have kept customers and staff entertained over the years. There truly are too many of you to name! We've enjoyed burgers and chats with one of the best DJs on the planet, Andy C. And had the pleasure of hearing DJ K-Swizz do his thing as a 14-year-old before he became a world champ.

In 2019 we launched Radio BurgerFuel Cut Class - our DJ school for everyone. Unfortunately it took a break due to Covid-19, but 2024 saw the return of this awesome programme. You can hear live DJ set's in stores nation-wide on Wednesday's from 7pm from the awesome Cut Class students and established DJ's.
