Minnesota Public Radio® is one of the nation's premier public radio stations producing programming for radio, Internet and face-to-face audiences. With its three services-News & Information Service, Classical Music Service and The Current-operating a 37-station regional radio network and serving a regional population of 5 million people, MPR has 94,000 members and more than 800,000 listeners each week, the largest audience of any regional public radio network.

Minnesota Public Radio has won more than 875 journalism awards, including the Peabody Award, several Edward R. Murrow awards and the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Gold Baton Award in 2001.

Minnesota Public Radio, operating as American Public Media, is the nation's second-largest producer and distributor of national public radio programs, reaching 14.6 million listeners nationwide each week. It is the largest producer and distributor of classical music programming in the country.

Minnesota Public Radio uses its regional network to deliver vital public services throughout Minnesota:
  • With assistance from the State of Minnesota, MPR maintains and improves the technical infrastructure to the state's Emergency Alert System (EAS) by providing signals to all other radio, television and cable stations in Minnesota.

  • MPR distributes the state's AMBER Alert System (the child abduction warning system) to all other broadcasting stations in Minnesota.

  • Supported by the Minnesota State Services for the Blind, MPR supplies the special sub-carrier signals that provide the Radio Talking Book, a reading service for the blind and visually handicapped.
Minnesota Public Radio's 998-seat Fitzgerald Theater and 100-seat UBS Forum provide a venue for live remote broadcasts, discussion forums, political debates, cultural programming and more.
