Magic Christmas is the festive spin-off from Bauer’s Magic radio family, built around Christmas songs that people actually know and want to hear. The station focuses on warm, familiar festive favourites rather than obscure filler, with a playlist that leans into seasonal pop, Christmas classics and big singalong moments.
The station’s sound is pure Christmas comfort: Mariah Carey, Michael Bublé, Leona Lewis, classic festive chart hits and the sort of songs that instantly make a room feel less miserable. It is designed for wrapping presents, putting up the tree, driving around in December traffic, cooking, working or just giving the house a bit of festive atmosphere without having to keep choosing songs manually.
Magic Christmas also connects neatly with Magic Radio’s wider festive output, including Magic of Christmas events and seasonal specials. Bauer relaunched Magic Christmas as a dedicated digital station in 2025, with a clear promise of The Best Variety of Christmas Favourites and a schedule built around familiar Magic presenters and festive guest shows.
