Radio Veronica is a Dutch commercial radio station of Sky Radio Group. The station runs mainly music from the 80s, 90s and 00s.

Radio Veronica in its present form was created on August 31, 2003 by a merger of the cable station Radio Veronica of the Vereniging Veronica and the golden oldie station Radio 103 Sky Radio Ltd. In return, received the Vereniging Veronica 3.5% of the shares of the Sky Radio Ltd. in hands. In 2006, this interest was expanded to 10%, after the Telegraaf Media Groep NV and ING acquired the Sky Radio Group and those in Sienna Holding BV - operating under the name Sky Radio Group accomodated. In 2007, the Telegraaf Media Groep NV acquired 85% (now 90%) of the company owned and thus control over the company.

Fluctuations

Early 2013 was Niels Hoogland appointed as program director. On November 4, 2013 the station was a new course. This meant the dismissal Erwin Peters, Bart van Leeuwen, Luc van Rooij and Dennis Hoebee. The change did not achieve a higher market share. Between January 2013 and October 2014, the market share decreased by 2%. Also Rob van Someren was replaced in late 2014 by Jeroen van Inkel. Niels Hoogland was replaced on November 1, 2014 by Erik de Zwart.

Erik de Zwart presented on February 2, 2015 a new programming. In this new course turned old items, such as "De Stemband" (The Vocal cord), "De plaat en zijn verhaal" (The board and his story) and Veronica FM program "Rinkeldekinkel" (Rang Kinkel) back. The design of the station appears again in the eighties, but adapted to the present time. Further took Black DJs Bart Van Leeuwen and Dennis Hoebee back.
