BNNVARA () is a broadcasting association and network within the Dutch public broadcasting system.

==History== BNNVARA was founded on 1 January 2014 through a merger of the BNN (founded 1997) and VARA (founded 1925) associations. These continued to exist without broadcasting directly until 2018. In 2011 VARA and BNN announced that they would merge. On 6 November 2011, the members of VARA voted for the merger, after the member council of BNN had already done so a week earlier. The merger was opposed by the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy and the Party for Freedom. BNN and VARA announced on 8 February 2012 that the decision to merge was definite.
