About Regency Radio

Regency Radio positions itself as a proper local station rather than a lifeless jukebox with a city name slapped on top. The station promotes itself as a local radio service for Brighton, available online, on apps and on DAB, and its site backs that up with a steady mix of local news, weather, travel updates and events coverage alongside music programming. That matters because it gives the station an actual local function instead of just pretending to be part of the area.
The output is aimed at Brighton and the wider Sussex audience, but it is not built around one narrow format. Regency mixes mainstream daytime listening with specialist evening and weekend shows, which gives it more shape than a lot of smaller local stations that drift into filler. You can see that in the schedule: soul, dance, local chat, rewind formats and lifestyle-led programmes all sit alongside non-stop music blocks, so the station has a broader identity than just background radio.
There is also enough local content around the music to make it useful. Regency carries local stories, travel and weather features, promotes events, and has built out podcast and catch-up content around its presenters and programmes. For listeners in Brighton, East Sussex and the wider Sussex area, Regency Radio offers a polished local alternative that still feels connected to what is happening on the ground instead of sounding remote and generic.

- Mike Panteli – Sweet Grooves: Mike Panteli presents Sweet Grooves, billed as the soul soundtrack for Sunday mornings on Regency Radio.
