Sweden's Radio Aftonbladet takes over from NRJ

03.08.2026 - Sweden Sweden

For the first time, Radio Aftonbladet will be broadcast on FM, DAB+ and via the Aftonbladet app. The countdown is now on to the launch of a radio station designed to make it easy to keep up with the day’s news – with fast-paced journalism, high-profile presenters and a tone that feels warm and personal. This is Aftonbladet’s biggest venture into audio to date. “We’re not just building a new channel – we’re establishing Sweden’s first commercial news radio station,” says Lotta Folcker, publisher at Aftonbladet. Radio Aftonbladet will be a national radio station broadcasting live journalism from morning to evening. News, sport and entertainment will be interspersed with music, with the aim of giving listeners a quick overview of what’s happening – in the car, at work and at home.
