DR P6 Beat is one of DR's digital radio stations in Denmark. It launched on 11 April 2011 as the second of five new digital-only stations.[1]

History

In November 2010, DR announced it would significantly lower the number of digital radio stations in its line-up from 23 to between 10-12.[2] The new line-up of digital stations were announced in January 2011 with P6 Beat as a station with focus on alternative music.[3]
