History
1996-2001: Home
Radio Disney began broadcasting on November 18, 1996 at 5:58 a.m. Eastern Standard Time with the song " Get Ready For This ." Their slogan was “We are all listening!” ( Eng. “We're all ears!”). Radio Disney began with songs that were on the Top 40 charts at local stations, popular old ones and songs from various cartoons and movies. These included Britney Spears , Christina Aguilera , 'N Sync , Spice Girls , A-Teens , Backstreet Boys , Hanson and others.
In 2000, artists such as Aaron Carter and Dream Street became popular. Their new short slogan has been replaced by “music and prizes by the cliff!”. Later, in 2000, Radio Dinsey increased the age limit from 12 to 14 so that prizes and sweepstakes could be won. The Disney Radio World Tour also debuted in 2000.
2001-2007: Disney Channel Stars
Near the end of 2001, Radio Disney was closely associated with singers / actors of the original Disney Channel shows, beginning with Hilary Duff and Raven-Symone , and later with Miley Cyrus , the Jonas Brothers , Demi Lovato , Selena Gomez , Mitchell Musso and others. Their current slogan, “Your music, your way,” also appeared.
In 2002, Radio Disney presented music awards for the first time. This prize is awarded now.
In 2004, The Walt Disney Company paid the former Children's Broadcasting Corporation $ 12.4 million. The Walt Disney Company, before launching its radio, collaborated for some time with Aahs Radio .
In 2006, the radio celebrated its 10th birthday, from the day it went on air.

2007 - Now: Various Changes
In April 2007, Radio Disney completely lost the word “Listen” (from their first slogan “We are all listening!”) From their (old) phone number, mail, and daily Playhouse Disney programs.

Since 2008, Radio Disney has had many different songs from the original Disney Channel shows, like well-produced music from other youth music bands, some of which are associated with Walt Disney Records , Buena Vista Records or Hollywood Records . Disney Playhouse programs were reduced by an hour. (initially the block went 2 hours).
In November 2008, Radio Disney relocated its headquarters from Dallas, Texas, to Burbank, California. At the end of May 2009, Radio Disney is completely changing its phone number. Their current phone number is 1-877-870-5678.
In June 2009, Radio Disney again increased the maximum return for winners. Now this age is 16 years old.
