Virgin Radio Pride confirmed for return in 2022
Pop-up station Virgin Radio Pride is confirmed to return in 2022.

Virgin Radio's pop-up LGBT+ station Virgin Radio Pride will return next summer, it has been confirmed.

The station launched in June and featured a non-stop playlist of LGBT+ anthems, in addition to documentaries, debates and other programming tailored to the community.

"We set out for Virgin Radio Pride UK to connect the LGBTQ+ community after a difficult year and create a space for storytelling and celebration of LGBTQ+ culture," said Mike Cass, content director at Virgin Radio.

"Hearing such emotive stories from guests, listeners, partner organisations and our own presenters has been incredibly powerful - to make a difference to just one person makes it all worthwhile.

"So I'm delighted the station will be returning next year, for more big stories, more powerful conversation, more LGBTQ+ celebration and more great music."

Virgin Radio Pride will relaunch on DAB and online in summer 2022.
