The Third Coast International Audio Festival (TCIAF) is a celebration of the best feature and documentary audio work heard worldwide on the radio and the Internet. The festival is organized by a team at Chicago Public Radio (WBEZ), and includes a weekly radio called Re:sound, an annual competition, nationwide broadcast, conference, web site and Chicago-based listening series. The term Third Coast refers to the idea that the US population tends to be higher on the east and west costs, and that Chicago, lying on the shores of Lake Michigan, is the third largest city in the U.S.
