About Nation Radio
This page plays Nation Radio, the station from Nation Broadcasting that took over from Radio Ceredigion, the much-loved local station for Aberystwyth and Ceredigion in west Wales. Nation Radio brings feel-good music, local news and friendly presenters to listeners in Wales and beyond. On this page you can listen to Nation Radio live online for free.
The story of Radio Ceredigion
Radio Ceredigion launched on 14 December 1992 from studios at the Old Welsh School on Alexandra Road in Aberystwyth. It was known for its bilingual schedule, with roughly half its output in English and half in Welsh, and for programming with a strong community focus. In March 2010 it was sold to Town and Country Broadcasting, and its programmes moved to West Wales studios in Narberth, Pembrokeshire. After Nation Broadcasting took control of the group, Radio Ceredigion became a relay of Nation Radio Wales on 31 May 2019. On 31 July 2025, Nation Radio stopped broadcasting on the former Radio Ceredigion FM frequencies after handing the licence back to Ofcom, but Nation Radio continues on DAB and online.
