Monday, 20 October 2025 08:10

Non-stop Christmas music station 'Your Christmas' is launching this weekend.

Get ready to deck the halls and crank up the Christmas cheer as Your Ilkley announces the launch of Your Christmas - a new radio station dedicated entirely to non-stop Christmas music.

Billed as the “all about the best of life at Christmas”, Your Christmas will go live on Saturday 25th October, marking exactly two months until Christmas Day.

Listeners can tune in via the Your Harrogate, Your Skipton and Your Ilkley websites and mobile apps, bringing festive joy to North Yorkshire and beyond.

From timeless classics to modern Christmas hits, Your Christmas promises to be the ideal companion for festive activities – whether you’re putting up the tree, wrapping presents, baking mince pies or driving through twinkling towns and villages.

The new festive station is being launched in partnership with Visit North Yorkshire, part of North Yorkshire Council.

Tony Watson, Head of Tourism, said:

“We’re absolutely delighted to be supporting the launch of the new ‘Your Christmas’ radio station from Your Harrogate, Your Skipton and Your Ilkley.

“This festive initiative perfectly complements Visit North Yorkshire’s Christmas campaign, which aims to showcase the magic of our region during the festive season.

“From enchanting Christmas markets to unforgettable visitor attractions, we’re inviting everyone to experience the warmth, wonder and festive charm that makes North Yorkshire such a special destination at this time of year.”

Adam Daniel, Managing Director of Your Media Group, added:

“There’s something truly magical about the start of the festive season, and we know how much people love the music that comes with it.

“Your Christmas is all about spreading that feel-good festive spirit across Harrogate, Skipton, Ilkley and beyond.

“Whether you’re getting the decorations out early or simply need a dose of Christmas joy, we’ll be here with the perfect soundtrack to make your season sparkle.”

Your Christmas will be available from Saturday 25th October via this website or on our mobile app.
