Can I listen on a smart speaker?
Yes. Just say 'Play 3FM' to your Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant device. If your device supports internet radio, you can also tune in through the 3FM live player at www.3fm.ie/live.
What kind of music does 3FM play?
The feel good stuff. 3FM plays adult contemporary classics and current hits — think Coldplay, Adele, Westlife and Whitney Houston, all day, every day.
Do I need a DAB+ radio or can I stream?
Both work. A DAB+ radio gives you the classic dial experience with no data usage, but you can also stream 3FM free through the live player, smart speakers, or any internet radio app that carries us.
Who operates 3FM?
3FM is operated by East Coast Radio Ltd and is licenced by Coimisiún na Meán as a DAB+ digital sound broadcasting service serving Ireland.
