Phoenix FM is a community radio station serving the areas of Brentwood and Billericay, United Kingdom on 98.0FM, east London, south and west Essex and east Hertfordshire on DAB, and worldwide online. Their FM/DAB broadcasts cover an area of over 3,000,000 people.

The station was formed in 1996 and has been broadcasting full-time on FM since 23 March 2007, having completed twelve 28-day restricted service licence broadcasts on FM between 1996 and 2006.

Phoenix FM was also the first community radio station in the UK to provide a streaming internet service, in 2001.

On 16 February 2006, Ofcom announced that Phoenix FM, after ten years of campaigning, had been awarded a full-time Community Radio licence.

Having previously set up studios in Ongar Road, The Hermitage and Hutton Poplars Lodge, Phoenix FM moved its base of operations to the Baytree Centre in early 2007 and started broadcasting full-time on 98.0 FM at 7pm. on Friday 23 March 2007. The station moved to new studios at the Brentwood Centre in February 2012.

The station's broadcasts have provided a valuable platform for local bands looking to gain airtime. Inme, who were then known under the name of Drowned, were one band whose first radio play and interviews were on the station.

The station's Creative Sessions have given studio recording time to unknown and young local bands as well as featuring established recording artists such as Republica, Imogen Heap, Turin Brakes, Salad, Echobelly, Midway Still, Chris T-T and MJ Hibbett.

Phoenix FM joined the Southend small-scale DAB multiplex on 30 April 2025, increasing its terrestrial audience by a further 800,000 listeners.
