ABOUT THE EVENT / What is the Great British Radio Reunion?

The Great British Radio Reunion is a special one-off event in London’s West End to celebrate the stars and personalities of British radio throughout the years.

Reuniting some of the best-loved names in broadcasting from your favourite stations including Radio 1, Radio 2, Capital 194, Luxembourg & sixties pop pirates.

Highlights include star name interviews, a celebrity pop quiz, Kid Jensen’s Big Interview with Martin Fry from ABC and our special live music feature “Ghosts of the Playlist” showcasing some of Britain’s biggest but now nearly forgotten radio hits, with performances by Tina Charles, Brother Beyond, Mungo Jerry, Jigsaw, Billie Davis, Clem Curtis of the Foundations, Linda Lewis and many, many more.

Note: Following the sad passing of Ed “Stewpot” Stewart we have revised our programme of events to pay a special tribute to this unforgettable radio legend and to celebrate his life.

A must for all radio presenters, disc jockeys, record pluggers and radio industry professionals both past and present! Members of the public welcome.
