About Dragon Radio
Dragon Radio is the classic hits station for Wales, playing all-time favourites from across the decades. Named after the Welsh dragon, it brings feel-good music and friendly presenters to listeners across the country on DAB and online. On this page you can listen to Dragon Radio live online for free.
Classic hits for Wales
Dragon Radio launched on 1 September 2016, replacing a station called Nation Gold, as a digital classic hits service from the group then known as Town and Country Broadcasting, now Nation Broadcasting. Its success has been so strong that Nation's founder has cited Dragon Radio as the inspiration for Nation Classic Hits, a variety service launched in October 2024. Nation Broadcasting runs a family of stations including Nation Radio Wales, Nation Radio Scotland, Radio Exe and decade stations, all available through the Nation Player app.
What you will hear
Dragon Radio plays all-time favourites from the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, with feel-good hits from artists such as ABBA, Queen, Elton John, Tom Jones, Shirley Bassey, Bonnie Tyler, Fleetwood Mac, Madonna and Take That, including plenty of Welsh stars. Presenters host shows through the day with music, chat, competitions, traffic and travel updates and weather for Wales, making it a friendly companion at home, at work or in the car. It is easy, familiar music for listeners who love a good singalong.
