With a strong local presence, the channel relies on young, dynamic teams, in addition to the solid structure of the Nouvelle République group to which it belongs. With an overall audience of 238,600 viewers, TV Tours has found its target. A key appointment is "Local génial", a culture and society program broadcast Monday to Friday at 6pm. And you won't want to miss the news several times a day, the game show "Qui veut gagner des rillons?", or the weekend diary!

The Info Tours website is local information in a nutshell: fast, clear and efficient! You can read the news of Tours and its surroundings in various themes.

The Info Tours Facebook page relays most of the site's publications, which allows the most connected to follow the news closely. Since its association with the webzine 37 degrés in 2017, InfoTours continues on the same line: a day-to-day news and without fuss, closer to the daily life of Tourangeaux.

The Touraine éco quarterly is the magazine of the Touraine Chamber of Commerce and Industry. In its pages, it highlights local economic news through portraits of local companies as well as the actions of the ICC. Produced by professional journalists, we can count on the quality of the information and texts offered, which sometimes reveal issues of interest to professionals in the sector, but also to the general public. The publication is available free of charge (also online on the ICC website: www.touraine.cci.fr).

Tours Métropole le Mag is the institutional magazine distributed by Tours Métropole (since 2018). The principle remains the same as for its predecessor Tours Plus le Mag: a magazine written by a team of journalists and communicators, with a clear and direct tone, to highlight the actions of the Metropolis and inform the inhabitants. Reports, portraits, and graphics make it possible to tackle sometimes technical subjects in a varied way. It also includes practical news (calendar of events, works...). Published three times a year, it is complemented by the Tours Loire Valley magazines, which focus more on tourism and economic attractiveness.

It arrives in your mailbox, and since January 2022, the bi-monthly becomes monthly: Tours Magazine is the free magazine of the City of Tours. In a new 32-page format, the municipal team of Emmanuel Denis wants to give a voice to the residents of Tours and to participatory democracy. The magazine features a variety of articles on the life of the neighborhoods, works, cultural activities, portraits, reports and computer graphics to keep you informed about the city's news. And for those who prefer to browse the web, the magazine is available in PDF, and also offers on its website enriched content, in addition to the published articles.

Since 2023, Europe 2 has returned to its original name, after almost 15 years as Virgin Radio.

The day gets off to a good start thanks to the sense of humor of the morning hosts. Then, local news, games and hits punctuate the day.

RCF, for Radio Chrétienne Francophone. 64 local radio stations, and Tours has its own. On the program: news, faith, but also more general information and programs on local culture and daily life. In the studio, hosts welcome guests from a wide variety of backgrounds in a friendly atmosphere. Employees and volunteers take turns at the microphone all week long, and offer their programs as podcasts on the radio's website. Smart show: Ce soir on improvise, live local cultural news every Friday.

Worthy heir to the free radio stations of the 1980s, of which it was a part, Radio Béton has kept the rebellious spirit that motivated its appearance in 1984. Almost forty years later, the hosts of all ages bring their energy and their passions to the microphone. The mix of generations and tastes gives an eclectic program, sometimes very sharp. Rock, punk, reggae, electro: all musical styles have their place. And with programs like "Des O et débats", "Bande d'annonces", or "Demain le grand soir", the radio explores comics, movies or politics, and much more. And the big Béton event is of course the unmissable Aucard festival in Tours!

The specialized quarterly devoted to Loire wines changed hands in summer 2019. Taken over in the summer of 2019 by a new team (journalist Antoine Burbaud and art director Jean-Baptiste Aubry), the magazine took the opportunity to undergo a makeover that gives it a second youth. The publication is a high-end work that will delight wine lovers, but the uninitiated will also find their account. On the program: portraits of winemakers and gastronomy professionals, reports...

Fritz is, of course, the stuffed elephant that every child in Tours has discovered at the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Tours. But since the start of the 2020 school year, it's also the name of a local magazine aimed at children aged 8 to 13. Its columns cover a wide range of topics: culture, ecology, citizenship, sports and not-to-be-missed events. The team of journalists selects information rooted in current events in Touraine, from a child's point of view. This elephant wants you to know better! Available in local bookshops and by subscription.

Chérie FM, with its playlists based on "the most beautiful music", as the presenters like to say, its magazines and short news items on well-being, love, family life and, of course, the news, makes it a fun radio station to accompany various moments of the day. Great hits from the 1980s to the present day punctuate the airwaves of this radio station. A small radio team is present in Touraine, offering a morning slot focused on local news every morning.

Radio Campus is a national network of community radio stations for and by students but not only. The programming includes live and voice track themed programs.
