Bell Media on Wednesday announced Vista Radio’s 51 radio stations are now available to stream through the iHeartRadio Canada platform.
The new agreement will also see the 21 Bell Media radio stations purchased by Vista in February 2024 continue to be available on iHeartRadio Canada after the transaction is closed, a Bell Media press release said Wednesday. The CRTC approved the sale of those stations earlier this year.
With stations across eight regions in Alberta, the Northwest Territories, British Columbia and Ontario, the Vista stations and brands joining iHeartRadio Canada include The Goat, Country FM, ICON Radio, The Ranch, Moose FM, Coast FM, Juice FM, and more. A complete list of the Vista stations now available to stream through iHeart.com and the iHeartRadio Canada app is available here.
“We are happy to partner with iHeartRadio Canada, marking another important piece for Vista Radio as we expand our reach and continue to deliver compelling content to our listeners,” Bryan Edwards, Vista Radio’s president, said in the press release. “This collaboration not only enhances our accessibility but also expands the choice available to Canadian audiences, ensuring wherever they are, they have instant access to their local community and their favourite Vista station.”
“This new partnership with Vista strengthens the extensive catalogue of radio stations available through iHeartRadio Canada, bringing great local content to listeners across the country,” said Sarah Cummings, director of radio content for iHeartRadio, Bell Media and Orbyt Media. “With the popular lineup of Vista stations now part of iHeartRadio Canada, the platform delivers even more expansive listening options, ensuring Canadians can enjoy the content they want wherever they are.”
In addition to Bell Media and Vista radio stations, iHeartRadio Canada also features Corus Radio, Pattison Media, Evanov Communications and Stingray Radio stations, among others.
