Primavera Sound is back for its 2025 edition, running from June 4th to 8th in its iconic Barcelona setting, and this year’s lineup proves once again why it’s a must-attend event for music lovers worldwide. Known for its eclectic mix of genres, the festival consistently delivers an unbeatable blend of indie, electronic, rock, and pop, and this year is no different.
One of the most exciting aspects of Primavera Sound is its ability to bring both established icons and fresh, emerging talent to the forefront. Among the headliners, Chappell Roan and Sabina Carpenter will bring their unique pop sensibilities to the festival stage. Roan, known for her theatrical performances and emotionally charged songwriting, promises to captivate with her vibrant, unapologetic energy. Sabina Carpenter’s rise in the pop world has been meteoric, and her set is sure to be a standout, especially with her blend of catchy hooks and empowering lyrics. Charli XCX, a staple of modern pop, rounds out the trio of headliners, bringing her futuristic, genre-bending sound back to Primavera, where she has always been a fan favorite.
The lineup also showcases a wide range of talent from the indie scene. Isle of Wight (UK) band Wet Leg, fresh off their breakout success, will continue to ride their wave of momentum, offering their cheeky lyrics and infectious indie-rock vibes. Fans of post-punk will no doubt be excited for Idles, whose explosive live performances and politically charged lyrics have made them one of the most exciting bands in the modern punk scene.
Alternative and electronic music enthusiasts will be thrilled to see LCD Soundsystem back in action. Their combination of rock, punk, and electronic elements guarantees an electrifying live show. Caribou will also return to Primavera, bringing his genre-defying electronic soundscapes that seamlessly weave between ethereal and danceable moments.
For those who appreciate a more experimental edge, the inclusion of Stereolab promises to add a touch of nostalgic indie-pop mixed with avant-garde experimentation. Meanwhile, Belgium’s techno queen Amelie Lens will no doubt have festival-goers entranced in her pulsating, hypnotic beats, keeping the energy high into the early hours.
Other notable acts include the dream-pop duo Magdalena Bay, who will deliver their nostalgic yet forward-thinking synth-driven tunes, and Parcels, known for their funky, feel-good live sets. Alternative rock band TV on the Radio will bring their genre-blending artistry, while Amaia, the Spanish indie-pop sensation, adds a local flavor to the lineup.
