"24timer" (literally "24hours") is a Danish free daily newspaper published by JP/Politikens Hus which began distribution on August 17, 2006.

The newspaper is officially distributed in selected areas in some of the largest cities of Denmark (Metropolitan Copenhagen, Århus, Aalborg, Esbjerg, Kolding, Vejle and Odense). [http://www.24timer.dk/VisArtikel.asp?PageID=13] However, distribution of the newspaper has been reported as lacking in a number of places. [http://www.tv2regionerne.dk/reg2005/player.aspx?id=304661&r=7] [http://www.tv2regionerne.dk/reg2005/player.aspx?id=308076&r=5] In August 2007 the papers Aalborg-section will be co-produced with NORDJYSKE Media in Aalborg, who will both produce the local journalism and print the paper in Aalborg. This change is part of a plan which will make 24timer the producer of nationwide journalism, but local mediagroups will produce the local content. In July 2007 the paper was the second largest in Denmark. Only 3000 in circulation behind the biggest, MetroXpress.

The paper is, amongst other places, distributed at trainstations in Jutland, and can often be found left in DSB's trains where they have been left by other passengers.
