Gaffa is a free Danish music magazine distributed in Denmark, Sweden and Norway.
Gaffa is published on a monthly basis since 1983. The magazine is distributed to places such as educational institutions, record shops, libraries and cafés, as well as a small number to paying subscribers. It features music news and notes, interviews, album reviews and upcoming concert schedules.
The name Gaffa comes from gaffa tape, with the magazine's stated intention of "binding the different parts of the music community together".
Gaffa's website, GAFFA.dk, was established in 1996. Since December 2008 all back issues of the magazine are accessible online free of charge.
In 2008 Gaffa launched GAFFA live - a concert overview for Denmark, Sweden and Norway.
In 2009 Gaffa was launched in Sweden (GAFFA Sweden) and in 2011 in Norway (GAFFA Norway).
In April 2006, Gaffa launched a user-written music encyclopedia, GAFFApedia, as a subsection of its website. Based on , it is similar to and covered by the Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike licence.
