MNM is a Belgian pop music radio station, launched in 2009, operated by the Flemish public broadcaster Vlaamse Radio- en Televisieomroep (VRT). The station broadcasts in Flanders and Brussels on FM and can be heard in France and the Netherlands on border areas.

History

On 5 January 2009, Peter van de Veire launches the new radio station.

On 8 March 2010, the MNM logo had a small modification, the black letter M becomes blue, and modernized its studio and website.

On 28 March 2011, MNM adds new jingles, a new programme (Sing Your Song) and two new radio hosts (Bert Beauprez, Renée Vermeire), the same year, and the slogan has changed from Let's Have a Big Time to music and more.
