Hits Radio (North Yorkshire)

Hits Radio North Yorkshire carries Bauer's contemporary hits programme for listeners associated with the county. Current popular songs and familiar throwbacks give the service a broader repertoire than a station focused only on new chart releases.

Presented entertainment supplies conversation and company around the music. The selection crosses mainstream styles and different periods, with recognised favourites remaining alongside newer recordings. It is a general music format rather than a programme devoted exclusively to one decade or one local musical scene.

North Yorkshire's reporting extends across urban, coastal and rural communities. The station has covered health campaigning in York, improvements around Harrogate station and stories from Scarborough and the Ripon area, alongside wider Yorkshire affairs. This gives the local news a county reach around the shared music programme. The network line-up includes Fleur East, Will Best and James Barr at breakfast and Gemma Atkinson with Mike Toolan in the afternoon. Throwback programmes highlight familiar songs, complementing the current-pop selection and the regional information that connects this edition to North Yorkshire.

The regional edition shares output with the wider Hits Radio network. North Yorkshire provides its county identity, extending the audience association beyond any single town. Listeners can choose it for a continuing presented programme that balances contemporary energy and remembered songs, with on-air voices shaping the listening day around that accessible music mix.
