RG-Lurgan is an internet radio station that plays Irish language versions of contemporary popular songs. The station is on-air 24/7 (from 3rd March) and is a mix of DJ shows and “shuffle plays” from our extensive library of popular songs as Gaeilge. Engaging full-on with Gaeilge is just a click away.
