Marbella beach with local business owners: advertising on Chilli FM

Radio reaches people when they’re relaxed

Most advertising interrupts. Radio is different: your audience chose to tune in, for the music, the energy and the familiar feel of Chilli. They’re not scrolling past you. They’re in the car, at the café or getting ready for the day, relaxed and paying attention.

On the Costa del Sol, where trust travels by word of mouth, being a familiar voice matters.

Chilli FM listener out running by the sea

Always on

Pop and dance, all day, no talk. Listeners stay tuned longer and hear your ad more often.

Consistent exposure

One mention is forgotten. A week of airtime becomes recognition.

A trusted voice

Chilli has been part of the coast for years, and that goodwill rubs off on the brands we carry.

English-speaking, living on the coast and spending

Marbella, Estepona, Fuengirola, Nerja. Many nationalities, one common language. People with disposable income who are looking for restaurants, services, tradespeople and local businesses they can trust.

Who’s listening

  • British, Irish and international expats
  • Long-term residents and second-home owners
  • Seasonal tourists exploring the coast
  • Business owners and professionals

When they tune in

  • Working from home or at the office
  • Morning routine, coffee on the terrace
  • Gym, errands, walking the dog

Five ways to get your business heard, and found

No one-size-fits-all. Whether you want a quick promotional push or a long-term presence, there’s a format that fits, and most campaigns combine two or three.
