Nelonen Pro 1 is a Finnish television channel owned and operated by Nelonen.

The channel was launched in June 2007 as part of the PlusTV package. It broadcasts as an encrypted pay channel, as opposed to its parent channel, which is free-to-air. The channel was previously known as Urheilu+Kanava, but it was replaced by Nelonen Sport Pro in February 2010. Nelonen Sport Pro was renamed to Nelonen Pro 1 in January 2011.
