N12 – Nordic Drama

The Nordic public service media companies DR, NRK, RUV, SVT and YLE are renowned worldwide for their outstanding Nordic drama productions. High quality drama, built on strong public service ambitions, has become one of our distinguishing trademarks.

Since its birth back in 2017, the collaboration N12 has secured an impressive offering of more than 80 drama series to the audiences in all Nordic countries.

The partners will continue to work hard on delivering on its promise– a unique, world-class drama offering to the Nordic audience.

The trust-based N12 partnership has also been the inspiration for New8, a new collaboration between the Nordics, NPO, ZDF and VRT.

The Nordic media partners also co-produce drama for the young adult audience, while the collaboration on children’s content, called B15, results in around 15 series each year.

What is N12?

N12 is a yearly package of 12 Nordic drama series with 12-month rights in the Nordic region.

The current catalog features productions from N12 2025 to 2026, to the extent that they are confirmed at this point.
