The Braves and Dickey Broadcasting announced Friday morning a 10-year extension of their radio rights deal.
The extension will keep Braves radio broadcasts on Atlanta flagship stations 680-AM and 93.7-FM through the 2026 season.
Also, Dickey Broadcasting will relocate its studios and offices to a loft-style building under construction in The Battery Atlanta, the mixed-use development adjacent to SunTrust Park. Dickey will lease fourth-floor space overlooking the stadium’s fan plaza.
Dickey Broadcasting has been the Braves’ radio rightsholder since 2010.
The company will continue to manage the team’s radio network, which includes more than 100 stations throughout the Southeast. Games will continue to be heard on FM simulcast partner 106.7-FM.
Braves president of business Derek Schiller, in a news release announcing the extension, called the relationship with Dickey Broadcasting “an extremely important part of our team.” He also said Dickey’s relocation to the SunTrust Park development “further showcases the success of The Battery Atlanta.”
“We’ve long been proud partners of the Atlanta Braves, and now we’re excited that we can call them our neighbors,” Dickey Broadcasting president David Dickey said in a statement.
Financial terms of the deal weren’t disclosed.
