About the station
Radio Essen is a local radio station for the city of Essen in the Ruhr area. According to its own information, the station combines a music mix with information about the city and current news from Essen. The addition “Dein Top40 Radio” points to a focus on current pop music.
The website features local news, for example on the reopening of the Central Library, and sports reports, including on the cup match between Rot-Weiss Essen and RB Leipzig. The station itself describes its morning show “Die Radio Essen-Frühschicht” as Essen’s best morning show. The podcast “Essen im Ohr” presents local events, for example the free concerts of the Urbahn Music Sessions in a subway station.
The station also works with young people: in autumn 2026, a radio camp with the Junior Uni took place, in which seven young people created their own programs. Listeners can also share their opinions on current topics and take part in activities in the city.
