Rejoice!
It will either be on Channel 15 (currently BBC Radio One) or 54.
We'll lose BBC Radio One's Friday night dance programming, however.

I think this kinda confirms it will be on the sats too. Dropping BBC Radio 1 ( which is on the Sats too).... for another channel...
54 is a better a channel for it but perhaps next channel updates? |

| Channel 54 makes perfect sense for a channel called 'Studio 54' and it still keeps it in the dance programming category proximity. |

| Looks like SiriusXM 15 will be the new home for disco on the satellites- now playing on BBC1: "SiriusXM is making room for a brand new channel. Coming soon on this channel, a new addition of commercial free channels." |

Well, we all know it can be possible that 15 can move to 54 no problem on the XM side. Probably stuck on 15 on the Sirius side though.

My only hope for this new channel is that it also plays 80's and 90's era dance music and not strickly 70's disco.

Based on the name, I would think that it would be strictly 70's era disco but we won't know until the channel starts up. I'm hoping there are no DJ's on the channel.

I'm very disappointed this morning. I don't really know why because it's not really my type of music. But I found myself tuning into BBC radio 1 a lot. I think it was hearing the accents. Chick with British / Scottish accents are hot. And I like the live lounges.
I read elsewhere that part of the reason is that the BBC Radio iplayer will be released in North America soon.

BBC Radio 1 is already axed. 
Check out the Dance Discussion for all the chatter about the forthcoming Classic Dance channel.
