Primavera Sound Barcelona has revealed the lineup for its landmark 25th year. A long ticket of headliners includes Phoebe Bridgers, Massive Attack, Caroline Polachek, Robyn, Turnstile, and a closing back-to-back set from Skrillex and Ninajirachi. Alongside them atop the bill are the Chemical Brothers, Doechii, Fontaines D.C., FKA twigs, Hayley Williams, Bad Gyal, Lola Young, Adéla, and Prospa, while Pavement, Tinashe, and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard are booked further down the listings. Check out the poster below.
The 2027 edition of Primavera Sound kicks off with opening parties the evening of Wednesday, June 2; the main festivities get going the following day, and continue through Saturday, June 5. Beneath the headline slate, a packed second billing also includes greats such as Anohni, Underworld, Dinosaur Jr., Vashti Bunyan, Bonnie “Prince” Billy, Converge, Juana Molina, and Mabe Fratti, as well as another return set from Atlas Sound; party-starters including Arca, Snow Strippers, Shygirl, Kim Petras, and S.A.S.S. (Saoirse, Moxie, Peach, and Shanti Celeste); leading contemporary singer-songwriters like Weyes Blood, Julien Baker, Bleachers, and Greg Freeman; and rock flag-bearers such as Gilla Band, Friko, and Lip Critic. There are also rising insurgents aplenty—the likes of Angine de Poitrine, Underscores, @, Westside Cowboy, B0YG1RL, and Ear. On the Sunday, Richie Hawtin, Four Tet, and Dixon are staging an all-day takeover.
Primavera’s 2026 edition had a similar multi-headliner-per-night model, with a handful of artists at the top of each bill. Among them were Addison Rae, the Cure, the xx, and My Bloody Valentine. A rainstorm on Friday night of this year’s festival also led to the cancellation of several performances, including sets by Massive Attack, who return this year, and Doja Cat.
