531pi is PMN’s mature brand, that targets tagata Pasefika, aged 40 years +.

Its focus is on News, Current Affairs, and language, while weaving in the unique personality and comedy from Pasefika hosts.

531pi boasts an array of 10 dedicated language-specific shows throughout the week (Cook Islands, Niue, Tonga, Samoa, Fiji, Rotuma, Tuvalu, Kiribati, Solomon Islands and Tokelau) and plays a variety of music, with both traditional and contemporary Pacific language music that can’t be found anywhere else but on 531pi.

531pi is for its community, from its community, about its community.
