Byavisa Sandefjord (Norwegian for 'Sandefjord City Paper'), known as Vestfold Blad (Norwegian for 'Vestfold Paper') until 2014, was a local free newspaper in Sandefjord, Norway. Owned by the media conglomerate Content Media, the paper was published weekly and later biweekly, and competed with Sandefjords Blad. Founded in 2010, Byavisa Sandefjord ran on deficits for most of its existence, before 2018, when the paper was shut down.
