The present application relates to the field of wireless communications, and discloses a multicast communication method and apparatus. In the method, an access network device determines that the last terminal connected to the access network device in a multicast group leaves the access network device and there is no terminal in an inactive state associated with the access network device in the multicast group, and the access network device releases the context of a multicast session of the access network device. In this way, the context of a multicast session corresponding to a multicast group can be released in time while it is ensured that a terminal in the multicast group receives multicast data, so as to save resources.
