Spotlight on Brittany is a radio magazine programme brought to you by volunteers from the AIKB, which attracts listeners from both the French and English-speaking communities.
Every month we explore the traditions and culture that underpin daily life in modern Brittany. Our themes change monthly and the programmes are broadcast every Wednesday and Saturday by Radio Kreiz Breizh and Radio Bro Gwened.
Theh programme contains items in French and in English, and to aid understanding we offer full transcripts - both in French and English - of every major item, so you can follow the written text at the same time as listening to the sound file.

Many of our listeners are outside Brittany – outside France indeed - listening on the internet. Please write to us at spotlightonbrittany@aikb.fr to tell us where you are and what you enjoy about our programmes.
Our focus this month is on Europe and an interesting initiative set up by GUIDEurope, in which people form ten villages in Europe, from Denmark down to the Greek Islands get together to share what they have in common and to organise events and exchanges in order to further cultural and language links. Age is no barrier and participants range from the youthful to the more elderly! Officially known here as Kreiz Breizh Villages d’Europe the scheme is sponsored by the Conseil General des Cotes D’Armor.> |

Since the beginning of January 2011, Spotlight on Brittany have been presenting new half-hour programmes which are broadcast on RKB every Wednesday from 14h00 - 14h30, and Saturday from 12h00 - 12h30, and on RBG on Wednesdays from 14h00 – 14h30 and Sunday from 08h30 – 09h00.
We are currently working hard on creating some dynamic programmes. We are still recruiting volunteers to join this exciting project, so if you have some experience in this field, do get in touch.
