NRK P3 is a nationwide digital radio channel operated by the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK). It was established as NRK's third radio channel in 1993 and was the result of the NRK radio channel reform initiated in 1992 by radio director Tor Fuglevik.

All NRK's radio stations are gradually digitized during 2017 and transmitted via DAB+ and internet only.

NRK P3 focuses on youth culture: principally music, together with humour, entertainment, and health education.

Over the years NRK P3 has fostered entertainers including Thomas Numme, Steinar Sagen, Kristopher Schau, Kari Slaatsveen, Jørgen Strickert, Anne Lindmo and Espen Thoresen.

Its notable programs include P3 Sessions that airs own-produced concerts live. Started in 2003, it has an average of 100,000 listeners.

It was the traditional home of Radioresepsjonen until late 2010 (after which a single-season TV version was made for NRK3), and then from 2011-2014, after which the show was moved to NRK P13.
