Nickelodeon Denmark is a Danish television channel targeting children.

The channel was launched on March 15, 2008 with the launch of VH1 Denmark, where it was simulcasted between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m.^[3] From 1996 to 2008, Denmark had been served by the Pan-Nordic channel Nickelodeon Scandinavia. The Pan-Nordic channel continues to be available on satellite.

VH1 stopped simulcasting Nickelodeon around New Year 2008/2009, which meant the two channel got their own frequencies in analogue cable networks such as YouSee and Telia Stofa, where Nickelodeon would now be available between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m.^[4][5]

From September 1, 2009, the channel will start broadcasting between 5 a.m. and 7 p.m.^[6][7]

The channel will be available from the digital terrestrial Boxer TV platform from November 2009.^[8]

Nickelodeon was one of the least watched children's channels in Denmark in 2008, with a viewing share of 0.3 percent among 3-11 year olds. It was surpassed by Disney Channel (15.7 percent share), Cartoon Network (12.0), Toon Disney (2.2), Jetix (2.1) and Playhouse Disney (2.1), with only Boomerang and Nickelodeon's satellite version having a smaller share of the children channels in Denmark.^[9]
