What you might not know

Audience insight that drives impact!

Capital was an early mover in TikTok and now has one of the largest followings of any UK radio brand on the platform. Its in-house social team produces short-form content both editorially and in collaboration with commercial partners, combining platform expertise, talent access and brand-safe creative execution. For advertisers using TikTok as part of a wider campaign, Capital offers an environment with both scale and credibility, helping content perform rather than just reach.

In addition to broadcast reach, Capital delivers scale across social and live events. The Capital Summertime Ball at Wembley Stadium and the Jingle Bell Ball at The O2 are two of the UK’s biggest music events, generating national media coverage, social amplification and partnership opportunities for brands. Beyond events, Capital drives a strong digital footprint on TikTok and Instagram, creating viral content that keeps the brand culturally relevant. This gives advertisers an opportunity to access Capital’s social audience, which can be a powerful channel if social activation is important to your campaign.
