Heart Scotland East is the Edinburgh-focused local version of Heart Scotland, serving the capital and surrounding parts of the east of Scotland. The station combines Heart’s feel-good music format with local information for listeners across Edinburgh, Midlothian, East Lothian and nearby areas.
The service has roots in Scotland’s regional commercial radio history, including the Real Radio Scotland era before the station became part of Heart. That gives Heart Scotland East a broader Scottish identity while still making the Edinburgh feed the right choice for listeners in and around the capital.
Heart Scotland East is built for everyday listening, with upbeat pop, familiar favourites, presenter-led entertainment, local news, weather and travel updates. It works well for commuters crossing Edinburgh, listeners around the Lothians, and anyone who wants a bright, mainstream station with a Scottish local connection.
The 101.1 FM signal is centred on Edinburgh, with 103.3 FM helping cover the Penicuik area and DAB available on the Edinburgh multiplex. Online listening keeps the Heart Scotland East feed easy to hear without relying on FM reception.
