98FM picked up two huge awards at the PPI National Radio Awards in Galway last night.
The awards, which are regarded as the Oscars of the radio industry in Ireland, were held in the Radisson Blu Hotel.
98FM's Dara Quilty was named the Music Presenter of the Year, while the 98FM Newsroom also took home the Best News Bulletin Award - for the third year in a row.
The Awards were presented by comedian Barry Murphy.
This years Awards saw a massive 25% increase in entries. These 780 entries (all made by the radio industry) were then judged by a team of 83 judges.
Speaking at the event, Chair of the PPI Radio Awards committee, Sean Murtagh, said: “As we turn 15, I think we can safely say that the PPIs have become the Irish radio industry accolade which everyone strives to achieve.
"Because of the unique way in which the PPIs are judged – with judges drawn from the radio industry at home and abroad – winning a PPI award, or even just making the shortlist, is a stamp of approval from your peers to say that you are making outstanding radio"
