THE RENOWNED RADIO station for all things Christmas is set to return to airwaves this Thursday, yet another signal that the festive season is well underway.
Whether you’re into Mariah Carey or a classic from The Pogues, it’s time to accept that you’ll likely be humming along to something Christmas-related for the next month.
Christmas FM will be going live at 1pm on Thursday and will run until 27 December.
Here’s how to listen on the radio:
Virgin Media digital tv subscribers can listen on channel 900. It can also be listened to by anyone online and through the app.

What songs are not allowed this year?
@Ed: at this rate there will be none left to play. This PC crap is going bonkers
@Ed: probably all songs that mention the word Christmas as it’s offensive to non Christians.
The one thing women don’t want to find in their stockings on Christmas morning is their husband
Only a matter of time before it’s called “Happy Holidays” FM
Or even “Snowflakes”
FM
Wooohooooo a sure sign it’s nearly time for the big man to come with his sack :) :)
@Declan Moran: Is it Friday night already?
Xmas is over the decorations are up a month already nearly time to take them down
@fergusob: that is such a sad take on Christmas. I hope things improve for you.
What a depressing shower of sh*ts! Hopefully they raise money for another good cause.
Feck that sh*t!! Keep RTE Gold….
Article should really make a point that this is about raising money for charity (barrettstown)
Bah humbug
Hard to give a shit about this..
@Suburban Dream: it’s for charity,they have raised a lot of money over the last few years..don’t tune in if you don’t want but Christmas is special to some people
@Pete mc pete: is it really for charity. I was going to go off on one there about how all this is way too early and it takes away from the week before and during Christmas, which use to feel a bit more special and Christmas didn’t feel dragged out. But if it’s for charity then it’s cool.
@aidan mccormack: yes it is Aidan,for Barretstown this year
@Pete mc pete: plus maybe it should’ve been mentioned in the article
have your say
