Arabian Radio Network
Located at Dubai Media City, the Arabian Radio Network (ARN) is the region’s fastest growing radio network and communications service. Striking a balance between community values and commercial growth, ARN has swiftly garnered the largest loyal audience base in the Emirates and the entire Gulf Region.The Arabian Radio Network addresses the interests of various audiences, communities and cultures through genre specific programming. Established in September 2001, its first launch was Al Arabiya 99FM, an around-the-clock Arabic music and news station.
Hitting record results, it established itself as the UAE’s number one proactive station through sound programming supported by talented teams of committed, well-trained presenters.
The Arabian Radio Network changed the topography of the airwaves and became an interactive medium for clients and consumers alike through its early monitoring of the psychographics and preferences of a young Arab audience.
Soon afterwards, the network went on to launch its second phase by broadcasting an English-language station called Free FM on 96.7FM as well as City 101.6FM, aimed at the expatriate Indian community.
The network conceptualised and launched another radio channel, Al Khaleejiya, on January 15, 2003, thus creating a new platform for Khaleeji music and giving it a wider reach and true voice reflective of the UAE’s inherent roots and traditions.
In 2005, ARN launched Hit 96.7FM, a station designed to serve the interests of the largest expatriate community in the gulf, the Malayalees. Living up to its namesake, Hit was a ‘hit’ from the start, attracting a large, loyal listener base.
