8Radio.com is an Irish radio station, started in 2013 by Phantom FM founder Simon Maher. It is mostly an online music station, but has sometimes received a temporary licence from the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland (BAI) for FM broadcasts in Dublin, Cork, Galway and Limerick.
Some of the station's presenters have had previous involvement with Phantom FM. Some others have previously worked with Dublin City FM and Raidió Na Life.
Its founder, Simon Maher, has described the station as finding "a niche among music lovers and those who may not currently consume much, if any, traditional FM radio".
In 2025, 8Radio began broadcasting on DAB+ on the east coast of Ireland.
