Sumer FM

Sumer FM is an Iraqi radio station that plays music, entertainment and cultural programming for listeners in Iraq. According to published sources it launched in 2004 and is the radio arm of the Alsumaria media network, whose homepage for the station is alsumaria.tv/SumerFm. A 2021 report listed FM frequencies in Baghdad, Basra, Erbil, Sulaimaniyah, Dohuk and Diwaniya, though these may have changed since.

The main language is Arabic, and the music centres on Iraqi and wider Arabic songs, mixed with some international pop. Besides music the station carries morning shows, social and cultural content and sports, in a lively style aimed at a general and younger audience.

Listeners can expect a friendly, chatty live programme with presenters, listener interaction and a steady stream of popular songs. The internet stream is a 128 kbps MP3 delivered over HTTPS and announces itself as Sumer FM live, so it can be played in browsers and radio apps anywhere. Detailed show schedules are not published in the sources used for this entry, so check the Alsumaria website for current programmes.
