About Rock FM

Listen to the internet radio of Rock FM live, which is owned by Bauer Radio Ltd., Lancashire related part of Bauer's Hits Radio Network, and member of the Planet Radio station fleet.
Rock FM broadcasts from Preston to the territory of Lancashire, and despite its name, Rock FM is not a rock genre specialized radio, but as the Hits Radio Network’s radios generally, mainly mainstream pop music fills up the playlist. The daily schedule is partly networked programming from Bauer's Hits Radio Network. Local news and weather reports keep the listeners updated, and good-tempered talk-shows with presenters keep the atmosphere cheerful in daytime besides the non-stop flowing pop hits from the last 15 years. The radio continuously runs competitions giving chance to the listeners to win money and various prizes by the Rock FM Cash Register.
The station launches the waves on weekdays with "The Rock FM Breakfast Show with Joel Ross" between 6am and 10am. The Saturday mornings are under the supervision of Fleur East from 9am to 12pm to pick up the speed for the weekend. On Sundays "The UK Chart Show" is broadcasted from 4pm to 7pm, which is Bauer's own, chart show led by Sarah-Jane Crawford, with the hottest 30 songs.

Rock FM slogan: "The Biggest Hits - The Biggest Throwbacks"

Bauer gains approval to network breakfast shows

Ofcom has granted Bauer a number of Format changes to allow all of its stations to network all but three hours each weekday rather than the previous seven. UK commercial radio stations have been allowed to submit Format changes since the Localness Guidelines were amended last year, but Bauer has only just taken the steps required to allow this.
