Melodi Grand Prix 2006 (shortened MGP 2006) is the television show organised by Norsk rikskringkasting (NRK) to select its entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2006.

The contest was held on February 4 in the Oslo Spektrum and was hosted by Synnøve Svabø and Stian Barsnes Simonsen. In addition, the Eurovision commentator for Norwegian television, Jostein Pedersen, played a role as side commentator for all five shows. In the three weeks leading up to the final, four qualification rounds were held; three semifinals and a second-chance round, where the last two final tickets were given out.

The winner was Christine Guldbrandsen with the song "Alvedansen".
