Christmas FM returns to the airwaves for this festive season

It’s time to break out the Christmas decorations and festive spirit as Christmas FM hits the airwaves once again today.

“The much-loved station, which switches Christmas on in Ireland marking the start of the official Christmas season for many, will play round-the-clock Christmas tunes, spreading an abundance of festive cheer and seasonal goodwill in the run up to the big day,” a spokesperson says.

Christmas FM, which is celebrating its 15th year on air this year, has raised over €3,000,000 for a range of charities since it began broadcasting.

This year, the radio station has launched a new fundraising initiative called ‘The Magic of Christmas,’ which brings together Barnardos, Barretstown, Make-A-Wish Ireland and The Community Foundation for Ireland as their official charity partners for the next three years.

Christmas FM is aiming to raise over €1,000,000 over the three years to help the charities support vulnerable children in our communities affected by traumatic life events such as poverty, abuse, neglect and bereavement.

Christmas FM can be found at FM 105.2 in Dublin, online at www.christmasfm.ie, or on Virgin Media Channel 900.
