Era (radio station)

Era is a Greek public radio station operated by Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation (ERT). It encompasses several national and regional radio channels. The core function of Era is to provide diverse programming encompassing news, culture, music, sports, and information to a wide range of audiences throughout Greece and internationally via satellite and internet streaming.

Era's various channels cater to specific interests and demographics. They include news-oriented stations, stations dedicated to Greek and international music, stations focusing on cultural and educational content, and stations broadcasting regional programming relevant to specific areas of Greece. The specific number and names of Era's active channels can vary over time due to organizational restructuring and evolving broadcast strategies within ERT.

Era played a crucial role in providing information and public service announcements during times of national crisis and emergency. Following the controversial closure of ERT in 2013, Era's staff continued broadcasting independently through alternative channels, maintaining a vital source of news and information before ERT's eventual reinstatement. The historical significance of Era lies in its role as a public service broadcaster, committed to providing unbiased information and promoting Greek culture.
