Gaffa (stylized as GAFFA) is a free Nordic music magazine with local editions in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. Gaffa is Denmark's largest and oldest music magazine. It has been published since 1983 and has 320,000 print readers and 750,000 online readers each month.[2]

The name gaffa comes from gaffer tape, with the magazine's stated intention of "binding the different parts of the music community together".[3]
