According to Radio Today:
“Irish Singer Brian Kennedy; RTÉ’s Stephen Byrne and FM104’s Sean Munsanje and Thomas ‘Crossy’ Crosse are among those who will present live shows on air.”
Radio Today also reported that Pride Vibes is the first station on FM in over ten years that represents the LGBTQIA+ community, and that the previous broadcast Open FM only reached people in Dublin.

You can check out the frequencies where you’ll find Pride Vibes above, ideal for all the commuters, or those who simply must have background noise on at all times. If you can’t find a frequency for your location, never worry; you can always stream it online.
The station will be accessible on FM for the rest of Pride month, and will continue online for the rest of August, until the end of summer.
