👉 A station that’s as bold and loud as the genre it represents, Radio Rock Norway is a must-tune for anyone who wants rock the way it’s meant to be: real, raw, and relentless.
Radio Rock is Norway’s go-to rock station, based in Oslo and part of the Bauer Media Group. Launched in 2013, it replaced the old station The Voice in Oslo and Bergen, stepping in with one clear mission: to deliver real, powerful rock.
About Radio Rock
The format is all about hard rock, covering four decades of music — from the 80s to today’s biggest riffs — always authentic, raw, and unapologetic. But it’s not just about songs: their popular morning show “Stå opp” (“Wake Up”) blends news, humor, and pop culture with hosts who truly live and breathe rock.
Since 2017, Radio Rock has been fully digital (broadcasting on DAB and online), keeping pace with Norway’s national shift to digital radio. Beyond live shows, the station connects with fans through podcasts, on-demand content, and one of its most popular traditions: the yearly “Top 666”, where listeners vote for their 666 favorite rock tracks of all time.
Radio Rock is also one of Norway’s most listened-to stations, consistently outranking rivals like P13 and P6 Rock. And fans have their own fun way of putting it:
“Radio Rock has that special ability to play the worst songs from the best bands.”
A tongue-in-cheek nod to the wide variety and rotation that keeps the station unpredictable — and addictive.
