It runs two parallel daily news bulletins, Le journal in French and Te talalogo in Wallisian and Futunan, and a local schedule of programmes on custom and tradition, language, religion, health, nutrition, work, youth and traditional fishing.

Worth knowing
The station publishes its news twice over rather than translating in place, as Le journal in French and Te talalogo in Wallisian and Futunan, each morning and again at midday, which is what makes the multi-language claim for this row verifiable rather than assumed.

What we corrected
Each of these changed a field in our own entry. The reasoning is the researcher's own, recorded when the change was made.
| Field | Change | Why |

fr
what it said before was not recorded; the
reasoning usually states it
|
French carries the bulk of the output and is the correct single code. Read on its own audio programme page: the main bulletins are 'Le journal - 7h' and 'Le journal - 12h30' in French, and the local magazine strands 'Futuna, le quotidien des habitants', 'Génération fenua', 'Mon métier, ma passion', 'Pêches traditionnelles', 'Santé prévention' and 'Nutrition' are French-titled. I checked the multi-language question directly rather than assuming it, because this row was flagged for it: the same page states 'Retrouvez l'actualité matinale en langue wallisienne et futunienne' and runs a parallel bulletin 'Te talalogo' at 6h30 and 12h in Wallisian and Futunan, alongside Wallisian and Futunan strands 'Ta'ofi fakamatala', 'Aga'ifenua', 'Temi fakalotu', 'Le'o o te 'api', 'Lomipeau', 'Faito'o o te fenua', 'Malolo fakasino' and 'Fakahēhē 'ofa'. So Wallisian (wls) and Futunan (fud) are both genuinely carried daily and are the correct codes for those strands; I am proposing fr only because this field takes a single value and French is the majority language. If the table can hold more than one code, add wls and fud, and please do not refuse them as unknown: they are the right codes for this service and the station's own page names both languages explicitly. |
| title | Wallis & Futuna 1 → Wallis-et-Futuna La 1ère | This is how the service brands itself on its own pages. Its audio programme page at https://la1ere.franceinfo.fr/wallisfutuna/programme-audio/ and its contact page at https://la1ere.franceinfo.fr/wallisfutuna/contact.html both name it 'Wallis-et-Futuna La 1ère', the standard form across the France Télévisions Outre-mer La 1ère network. The stored 'Wallis & Futuna 1' is an anglicised contraction that matches no wording the broadcaster uses. The accents and hyphens are part of the name as the service spells it. |
What we found and did not publish
Material that would have made this page fuller, and was refused. A page with five named presenters looks better than a page with none even when the five are a website theme's demonstration content, and the difference is invisible to a reader. So it is recorded here instead.
| What we could have said | Why we did not |
|---|---|
| Face aux Outre-mer and its presenter Serge Massau | a national Outre-mer network programme offered on the same portal, not Wallis and Futuna's own radio output, and precisely the network bleed flagged for this row.
source |
| Les Grandes figures du Pacifique and L'eau, notre bien commun | multi-territory network series covering New Caledonia, Polynesia and an eight-territory run respectively, so I do not count them as this station's own programmes.
source |
| National franceinfo presenters and programmes offered through the portal | the portal mixes national and local output on one page, and only what it presents as Wallis and Futuna's own is recorded here.
source |
| A broadcast frequency | neither the audio programme page nor the contact page states one.
source |
| Wallisian and Futunan recorded as the row's single language code | the field takes one value and French carries most of the output, so French is proposed and the Wallisian and Futunan strands are documented here and in the correction rationale.
source |
| an FM frequency for the territory | France Televisions publishes none on this station's own pages, its JSON-LD declares only a NewsMediaOrganization with no broadcastFrequency, and I will not borrow one from a directory

If you think something here is wrong
Tell us which fact and what you found instead. Everything above names its source and its date, so a disagreement can be settled by looking rather than argued. Where another site disagrees with us, it is usually because it is repeating a radio directory, and occasionally because we got it wrong. We would like to know which.
Read from the station's own material; this page is generated from the
catalogue as it stands now, so it changes when the research does. Research
current as at 2026.
