RED 88.9 FM Toronto is a Brampton-based multilingual commercial station serving the Greater Toronto Area with South Asian music, community programming, news, podcasts and a direct music-for-airplay route.

RED 88.9 FM Toronto, call sign CIRV-FM, is a commercial ethnic radio station licensed to Toronto through August 2030 and operating from Brampton. Its schedule carries Punjabi, Hindi, Urdu, Gujarati, Spanish, Portuguese, Ukrainian, Mandarin, Cantonese and Caribbean programming, alongside South Asian music, Canadian music videos, news, community talk, podcasts and interviews. The station explicitly serves Greater Toronto's ethnic diversity and South Asian community. Its current official contact page accepts music for airplay as WAV or high-quality MP3 audio with detailed credits and rights confirmation, states that submissions may be reviewed or rejected, and directs senders away from individual hosts and programs. MusicList links to that official instruction page without reproducing its named-person inbox.
