Primavera Sound Barcelona has revealed its most ambitious lineup yet for the festival’s 24th edition, taking place June 4–6, 2026, with a week of surrounding events across the city. Unveiled earlier than ever, the lineup spans 150 artists across generations, genres, and cultures, reflecting the festival’s ongoing commitment to gender parity and global diversity.
Leading the charge are The Cure, returning after setting the record for the longest concert in Primavera history, joined by Doja Cat, the highly anticipated return of The xx, the animated spectacle of Gorillaz with a brand-new album The Mountain, Massive Attack in their long-awaited festival debut, pop phenomenon Addison Rae, and shoegaze pioneers My Bloody Valentine.
Other highlights include Mac DeMarco, Father John Misty, Bad Gyal (in her only 2026 festival performance), Big Thief, Little Simz, Alex G, Slowdive, Einstürzende Neubauten, Wet Leg, Skrillex, Peggy Gou, PinkPantheress, Ethel Cain, Blood Orange, and Kneecap. The festival also celebrates rare reunions like Rilo Kiley and Texas is the Reason, plus fresh debuts from rising voices such as Lola Young.
True to its reputation, Primavera Sound embraces contrasts: Ravyn Lenae alongside Bestia Bebé, MARINA paired with Touché Amoré, Underground Resistance alongside Merzbow, and everything from fado singer Gisela João to avant-garde legend Joan La Barbara. Global perspectives will shine with performances from Amaarae (Ghana), Six Sex (Argentina), ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U (Japan), Buscabulla (Puerto Rico), Samaʼ Abdulhadi (Palestine), Guedra Guedra (Morocco), HYPNOSIS THERAPY (South Korea), and Ninajirachi (Australia), alongside Spain’s own Rojuu, Depresión Sonora, Barry B, and more.
The main festival days will once again take over Parc del Fòrum, while Auditori Fòrum returns for special performances after a year’s break. Surrounding events include the electronic Primavera Bits party with Carl Cox, Joseph Capriati, BLOND:ISH, and Greta, plus a citywide program yet to be announced. Meanwhile, Primavera Pro, the festival’s industry conference, celebrates its 17th edition from June 3–7.
