CHUM 104.5 is one of Toronto's most famous radio names.

The station describes itself as Toronto's Best Music. On this page you can listen to CHUM 104.5 live online, free and without an app.

A legendary call sign

The CHUM name has a special place in Canadian broadcasting. CHUM was the station that brought rock and roll to Toronto radio in the 1950s, and the CHUM Chart was for years the city's reference for hit music. CHUM-FM has been a Toronto fixture since the 1960s, and the company that built these stations, CHUM Limited, became part of Bell Media's history after a series of acquisitions in the 2000s.

The music

Today CHUM 104.5 plays a hot adult contemporary mix: current pop hits, R&B and dance-pop alongside favourites from the 2000s and 2010s. The playlist suits listeners at work and on the commute, and the station is known for its morning show, its celebrity interviews and its contests, which have included concert tickets and trips.

Toronto, live

CHUM's hosts talk about life in the city between songs: traffic, weather, events and Toronto's sports teams. The station supports charities across the GTA and often presents concerts by the artists it plays.
