Persian Radio Online: Farsi Stations Streaming Live

Published 24 September 2026

You can listen to Persian radio online in any browser, with no download and no account: open 72FM, search for a station's name, and press play. Farsi-language news and music stream from broadcasters in Europe and North America, and some of them are among the most-listened stations in the directory.

News and talk

• Radio Farda — the Persian service of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, based in Prague; one of the most-voted stations in the whole directory.
• Iran International — a London-based Persian news broadcaster.
• RFI Persian — the Persian service of Radio France Internationale.
• Radio Hamrah — Farsi talk and public radio from the US.

Music

• Persian Vibe Radio — Persian pop and Iranian music, from the UK, at 192kbps.

Faith

• Radio Mojdeh — Christian radio in Persian.

Listening from abroad

Much Persian-language radio is made outside Iran for listeners inside it and for the large Iranian diaspora, which is why the most-listened stations are based in Prague, London and Paris. Prague radio online covers the city's stations. Expat radio and news radio go further.

Persian music

Persian classical music is organised by the radif, a repertoire of melodies grouped into modal systems called dastgah, and is played on instruments such as the tar, setar and santur. Persian pop flourished in the 1970s — Googoosh was its biggest star — and after 1979 much of it moved abroad, above all to Los Angeles, where the scene was nicknamed "Tehrangeles". Around Nowruz, the Persian New Year at the spring equinox, Persian stations fill with celebration music.
