Description
BG Estrada is the retro channel of BG Radio, the Sofia station built on a single rule: only Bulgarian music. Where the main service mixes current Bulgarian pop and rock with older material for a broadly middle-aged audience, this stream is given over entirely to estrada, the golden era of Bulgarian popular song, with the emblematic hits of the 1980s at its centre. It runs as an online channel carried on the BG Radio website and mobile apps rather than on a frequency of its own, and it exists for listeners who grew up with those records and want them without new releases in between.

What we corrected
Nothing. This station's entry matched what its own site says, which is worth recording: a clean check is a result, not an absence of one.
What we found and did not publish
Material that would have made this page fuller, and was refused. A page with five named presenters looks better than a page with none even when the five are a website theme's demonstration content, and the difference is invisible to a reader. So it is recorded here instead.
| What we could have said | Why we did not |
|---|---|
| the on-air studio number, the three office telephone numbers, the three email addresses and the three street addresses | the sweep rule forbids copying an actual telephone number, email address or street address into this file
source |
| the contact page is the parent channel's and is not specific to BG Estrada | BG Estrada appears on this site only as a sibling stream in the player and the navigation, with no page of its own; recorded for a later round

If you think something here is wrong
Tell us which fact and what you found instead. Everything above names its source and its date, so a disagreement can be settled by looking rather than argued. Where another site disagrees with us, it is usually because it is repeating a radio directory, and occasionally because we got it wrong. We would like to know which.
Read from the station's own material; this page is generated from the
catalogue as it stands now, so it changes when the research does. Research
current as at 2026.
