History

edit

In 2016, 1700 was airing on C31 Melbourne & Geelong on Wednesday and Friday afternoons from 5 pm.[1]

Notable former guests include SAFIA,[2] The 1975,[3] and You Me at Six.[4] The programme has previously covered festivals and events such as BIGSOUND, Groovin' the Moo, and The Falls Festival.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the series moved from the C31 studios to remote recording over Zoom. In 2022, a soft reboot of the series was started in collaboration with RMITV, which now utilises their TV studios and crew.[citation needed]
