XFM Manchester was an Independent Local Radio station broadcasting alternative and indie music to Manchester in North West England.

It built on the brand and format established by XFM London. The majority of programming was shared but some was produced specifically for Manchester. At its launch in 2006 it was owned by GCap Media, and later became part of the Global Radio group.

In September 2015 the station was replaced, along with XFM London, by Radio X.
