City Groove Radio

City Groove Radio is a community station rooted in Lisburn and serving listeners in Belfast and the surrounding area. Familiar favourites, contemporary hits and older classics form its feel-good music mix. Local voices and information accompany the songs, giving the station a clear connection to the people and organisations in this part of Northern Ireland.

Community activity receives attention through interviews, local news and coverage of events. The station highlights charities, businesses and neighbourhood initiatives, with sport and community success stories adding other perspectives. Its local pages also introduce practical subjects such as the work of neighbourhood policing teams and opportunities to take part in nearby activities.

The service developed from Radio Lisburn Live, carrying that local starting point into its newer City Groove identity. Lee Everest's Dance Party Weekly supplies a dance-oriented programme, Stephen Howie presents Grooveline and The 80s Mixtape revisits an earlier pop decade. Longer nonstop selections also feature in the timetable. These strands give the music recognisable appointments while the station continues its broader interest in Lisburn's cultural life and community participation.

Participation extends beyond sending a message to a presenter. City Groove welcomes people interested in journalism, production and volunteering, and its Academy offers training for new presenters and contributors. That connection between broadcasting and learning helps bring additional local voices into the programme, while the music provides a positive setting for the station's community conversation.
