New national radio station?

Sound Digital reaches 83% of the UK population via a network of DAB transmitters in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

It’s the home of a wide range of stations, including Times Radio, Jazz FM, Fix Radio, Capital Chill, Virgin and Boom Radio.

We’re looking for people interested in the rare opportunity to launch a new national DAB+ station. You’ll need a strong business plan, a clear market proposition and ideas about how you’ll connect with listeners.

We are able to consider bids for one DAB+ channel at 24kbps.

You can register an interest by emailing linda.passey@arqiva.com.

Please include your company’s full name and Companies House Registration Number (or equivalent). We’ll then contact you with a confidentiality agreement and more information.

Final date for submission of expressions of interest will be the 13th of September.
