Primavera Sound 2025 is a music festival scheduled to take place between 5 June and 7 June 2025 in Barcelona, Spain. It will be the 23rd edition of the festival.
Background
[edit]On 24 October 2024, Primavera Sound announced the initial lineup for the festival's 2025 edition, featuring three female pop stars as headliners: Charli XCX, Sabrina Carpenter and Chappell Roan. Charli declared that the trio were the "holy trinity", and the festival said: "The fact of having three female artists headlining a festival like this is especially symbolic if we consider that they also lead an artistic line-up that is gender-balanced. This has been the hallmark of Primavera Sound since the unforgettable 2019 edition, which for the first time balanced a historically uneven scale. This closes, finally."[2][3] Tom Breihan wrote for Stereogum that Primavera "booked all three main characters from 2024’s pop girl summer as headliners".[4]
The festival also announced a new LCD Soundsystem album in 2025 along with their appearance, though recanted that claim a day later.[5][6]
Reception
[edit]In November 2024, Stereogum said that "rock-leaning institutions embracing pop is not a new phenomenon" but described the Primavera headliners as "a new frontier in poptimism."[7]
