About BBC Radio Foyle

BBC Radio Foyle is the BBC's local station for Derry and the north-west of Northern Ireland, with music, news, sport and talk. The schedule is built around the life of Derry/Londonderry and counties Donegal and Tyrone, with morning and afternoon talk shows, local news, community stories, phone-ins and sports coverage, mixed with a broad selection of music for an adult audience. The presenters speak with the accents of the north-west, and the tone is warm and conversational.

The station serves a region with a distinctive identity and a border position, which gives its programming a character of its own compared with the main Northern Ireland service, BBC Radio Ulster. As a service of the BBC, it is funded mainly by the licence fee and carries no commercial advertising within the United Kingdom. The language is English, with local expressions, which is an interesting experience for learners and for people who want to hear the voice of the area. Because of rights, some programmes, especially sport, may be restricted outside the United Kingdom. The feed does not declare a fixed codec or bitrate in its metadata, and the quality may vary with the source. It plays in your browser on RadioKite without installation, and you can add it to your favourites.
