Boom Radio launched in 2021 aimed at baby boomers, after the BBC moved older listeners off some of its local output. It plays music from the 60s and 70s with presenters familiar from that era of British radio.

Frequently asked questions about Boom Radio live
Neither. Boom Radio is internet-only, which in practice means no coverage map and no interference: it sounds the same in Cornwall, in Glasgow and abroad. The player on this page carries the live feed, free and without an account.
Stations built on older music work from a settled catalogue rather than a rotating playlist, which is the point: the songs have already proved they last, and the audience comes precisely because it knows them.
It works from any country. Some British broadcasters do replace certain music or sport on their international feeds because rights are sold by territory, but the station itself is not geo-blocked.
No account, no email address, no trial. Press play and the stream starts; there is no limit on how long you can listen.
An hour of Boom Radio costs roughly 30 to 60 MB. For comparison, standard-definition video can use that in a few minutes.
