WGAN is an American AM radio station licensed to Portland, Maine and owned by Saga Communications. It is located at 560 on the AM band. The current format is News/Talk, with local news being provided by a small local staff and national news provided by CBS and CNN Radio.

The station was founded in 1938 by Guy Gannett Publishing, which was then the owner of the "Portland Press Herald" newspaper. WGAN gained a companion television station, WGAN-TV, in 1956; it was later renamed WGME.
