‘ON-AIR – THE NEXT RADIO STAR’ HUNT IS NOW UNDERWAY

Bauer Media Audio Ireland has launched its biggest ever search for new talent.
'On-Air - The Next Radio Star' is a huge effort by the group to increase diversity and representation across its music and entertainment stations.
Kicking off earlier this summer, Red FM hosted an open day at the Mahon Point Shopping Centre inviting interested and aspiring radio presenters to come along, meet some of the current radio personalities, DJs and content editors, and put themselves forward to secure a spot on the programme.
After much deliberation, Red FM have now chosen six new interim presenters per station, resulting in six new voices on air on Irish radio. Some of the shows will feature a vibrant blend of English and Irish.
After undergoing a training and mentorship series from industry professionals, the six candidates will each present a show live on air on Red FM every Sunday for four weeks. After the six months, one candidate will land a paid contract to host their own on-air residency on Irish radio.
'On-Air - The Next Radio Star' sees its first batch of candidates take to the airwaves this weekend.
Tune into Eimear Hallihan this Sunday, 20th October from 10 – 11 PM.
Red FM also look forward to welcoming John Paul Peyton, Avril Murphy, Kestine Ugbodu, Sophie Kirkby and Storm Kearney in the coming months.
Keep an eye on Red FM for more information on candidates.
This project is co-funded by Coimisiún na Meán under the Sound and Vision Scheme
