The sound of the city

Budapest's free-radio scene began with Tilos Rádió, which started as a pirate station, and the city's classical and folk traditions still run deep. Hungarian radio goes further.

A little history

Hungarian broadcasting began in 1925. In October 1956 the fight for the radio building on Bródy Sándor Street was one of the first battles of the uprising.

Listening from elsewhere

Budapest keeps Central European Time — one hour ahead of UTC in winter and two in summer.
