IT’S BACK (almost).

Christmas FM is returning to the airwaves tomorrow at midday to play Christmas tunes around the clock between now and the big day.

This year, Christmas FM will continue with its Magic of Christmas appeal, raising funds for Barnardos, Barretstown, Make-A-Wish Ireland and a range of other charities.

Last year, the appeal appeal raised almost €300,000 for the charities and the fundraising initiative is hoping to raise over €1,000,000 between 2022 and 2024 for Ireland’s children’s charities.

“Celebrating 16 years on air is a major milestone for us which we wouldn’t have reached without Coimisiún na Meán and our amazing listeners, fans and volunteers who have supported us and our chosen charities throughout the years,” Garvan Rigby, Christmas FM co-founder, said.

“We are once again raising funds for the Magic of Christmas appeal, supporting a range of children’s charities across Ireland helping children in need who need it most.”
