WXPN 88.5 Philadelphia

WXPN 88.5 FM, also known as XPN, is a non-commercial public radio station in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It plays an adult album alternative mix of rock, folk, blues, singer-songwriter and roots music, with a mix of established and emerging artists. This stream carries the main broadcast in MP3 format at 128 kbps.

The broadcast license is held by the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, although the station describes itself as financially independent and supported by listeners. Its programming reaches beyond Philadelphia through additional signals in the Lehigh Valley, Lancaster/Lebanon, Harrisburg and Baltimore areas. The station also produces World Cafe, a music program distributed by NPR, which is heard on public radio stations around the United States.

The station broadcasts in English. Listeners can expect music-led programming with hosts presenting new releases and classic tracks, artist interviews and live performances, and local concert and event information for the Philadelphia area. The mix suits listeners who enjoy discovering new artists alongside familiar favourites, rather than a narrow single-genre playlist.
