Cork's RedFM is an Irish radio station which broadcasts to Cork and the surrounding area, and is aimed at a youth audience. The station commenced broadcasting on 16 January 2002[2]" and was awarded Ireland's first youth radio licence. Its target market is the 15-35 age group in Cork city and county.
On 1 March 2023, the radio station was acquired by Bauer Media Audio and became one of the group's stations in the country.[3] It adopted a new branding kit in early 2024, to closer align with sister stations across the Bauer network. This included a new tagline, Cork's Good Times, taken from the network's similarly formatted 98FM in Dublin.
