RTÉ 2FM has announced their brand new daytime and weekend schedule.
The announcement has revealed a huge shakeup to schedule with a brand new presenter line-up.
With a focus on new voices and 2FM’s key public service mission, this new direction cements 2FM as the ultimate audio destination for Irish and new music, talk and entertainment.
An all-new Breakfast Show presented by Carl Mullan, Roz Purcell, and Aisling Bonner promises to wake up the nation with a new energy, sharp wit, and unbeatable soundtrack.
Mid-morning will continue with Laura Fox daily from 9am, while the ever-popular Tracy Clifford will take the baton at 12 noon with the best of Irish music, and the home of 2FM Rising acts.
As the day turns to evening, Doireann Garrihy will take the listeners home, offering the hottest tracks, entertainment updates, and feel-good vibes to power the evening commute.
This marks Doireann’s return to the station following her shock departure from the 2FM Breakfast Show last summer.
2FM is set to be the nation’s platform for the next generation of radio talent, as the weekend schedule is reinvigorated with the addition of four new presenters.
These new stars include Benny Bracken, Helen Galgey, Mikey O’Reilly and presenting from our Cork studios, Demi Issac who have all been selected from an expressions of interest competition which ran across the station last autumn.
These talented broadcasters, all with backgrounds in the industry, are set to bring their unique styles, passion for music, and fresh perspectives to the airwaves.
Head of RTÉ 2FM, Dan Healy confessed: “I’m really excited to launch our daytime schedule with new and familiar voices on 2FM as we welcome back Doireann to present our new Drivetime show and look forward to Carl, Roz, and Aisling as our new breakfast hosts.”
“Designed for today’s audience, the new schedule will have an emphasis on Irish and new music, inclusivity and original entertainment. Whether you’re starting the day, on your commute, or unwinding over the weekend, 2FM will have something fresh and exciting waiting for you.”
“RTÉ 2FM has a proud history of identifying and nurturing incredible talent, with many of our presenters going on to have hugely successful careers in broadcasting. The weekend line-up is a continuation of that tradition, showcasing new voices that truly reflect the vibrancy and diversity of our audience.”
The new daytime and weekend schedules will launch in February 2025.
