Donna is a Belgian pop music radio station, broadcasting in the Flanders region of Belgium and owned by the Flemish public broadcaster, Vlaamse Radio- en Televisieomroep (VRT).

On August 28th 2008, the VRT announced that it no longer believes in the Donna brand.

On September 10th 2008, it was confirmed that the station would undergo a major relaunch and rebrand in the near future.
