Limerick’s Live 95FM has again retained its position as the most listened to radio station in Limerick City and County, as it prepares to celebrate its 20th year on the air. The strength of the radio station in the locality is enduring as 61% or 94,000 Limerick people tune-in to Limerick’s Live 95FM weekly, according to the latest Ipsos/MRBI JNLR radio listenership figures published this week, covering the 12 months to the end of September 2017.

The figures come at a very positive time for the radio station after renewing its 10-year licence from the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland, which commences this month and receiving a Silver IMRO National Radio Award for its news coverage.

“I also want to sincerely thank the team on the air and behind the scenes here at the radio station, whose ability and hard work continue to deliver a service that the listeners of Limerick tune-in to, in significant numbers and thanks are also due to our loyal advertisers, for their continuing support,” he said.
