iRADIO is a music-driven youth radio station broadcasting to the Border, West, Mid-East and Midland regions of Ireland. The station is one of four music-driven youth stations that is licensed by Coimisiún na Meán to challenge the current duopoly in the 15-34 age bracket for those outside Dublin by national stations RTÉ 2fm and Today FM.

The station offers a mix of music, chat, competitions, and topical segments, providing a vibrant alternative to traditional radio. Its presenters are known for their energetic style and strong engagement with listeners through both on-air content and digital platforms.

Based in Athlone and with weekly listenership of 343,000, it was created by the merger of i102-104FM and i105-107FM on 4 July 2011. The combined 15-county franchise was awarded a new ten-year licence in 2019.

In August 2023, it was announced that iRadio would be acquired by Bauer Media Audio Ireland. On 4 December, the purchase was completed. It adopted a new branding kit in 2025, to closer align with sister stations across the Bauer network.

iRADIO is licensed to cover 15 counties across Ireland:


The station can also be received in parts of Dublin, North Tipperary, Wicklow, Armagh, Fermanagh and Londonderry via overspill.

This extensive coverage gives iRADIO a strong regional presence, reaching hundreds of thousands of young listeners each week.

iRADIO primarily broadcasts contemporary hit music (Top 40), targeting a core audience of 15- to 34-year-olds. The station features a range of dynamic programming throughout the day, including music, entertainment, and youth-focused content.
