UK radio station listening figures

Media UK lists the official UK radio listening figures from RAJAR. Here's where to find them

Every quarter, the UK radio industry releases audience figures for radio stations. Media UK lists the figures going back over twelve years, so you can see the overall trend of each station.

To find them just find a radio station, and click the "audience figures" button. For example, here's BBC Radio 1's listening figures.

We also list some larger radio owners' RAJAR figures. As an example, here's Global Radio's listening figures. Once again, you'll find an "audience figures" button on their pages within Media UK.

Around RAJAR day, we also link to analysis and news from other publications and industry writers, to give you both the real, unvarnished, figures and the radio station's spin.
