Barcelona’s Primavera Sound has announced its 25th anniversary lineup, and the bill runs deep. Doechii, Phoebe Bridgers, and Fontaines D.C. lead a sprawling roster that spans rock, indie, hip-hop, and electronic music, with the festival set for June 2nd-6th, 2027.
The Irish band will play amid an extensive 2027 world tour, including a recently announced North American leg. The festival returns to its longtime home in Barcelona’s Parc del Fòrum, with the main program running June 3rd-5th. Wednesday, June 2nd opens the event with a free day of music, though its lineup remains unannounced.
The Headliners and Their Debut
Fontaines D.C. join Doechii and Bridgers as the top acts. The Irish band’s appearance comes during their 2027 world tour, which includes the recently announced North American leg.
Massive Attack is another major draw, making their Primavera Sound debut after their 2026 performance was canceled due to severe weather. Bad Gyal, whose 2026 set was also affected by the cancellation, is also returning.
The festival marks 25 years since the inaugural Primavera Sound was held in Barcelona in 2001.
A Long Weekend, From Free to Electronic
The weekend kicks off Wednesday with the free opening day. The festivities wrap on Sunday, June 6th, with a Primavera Bits all-day electronic takeover featuring Richie Hawtin, Four Tet, and Dixon.
Further down the bill sit a wide range of acts:
- Pavement
- King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard
- Tinashe
- Underworld
- Kim Petras
- Bleachers
- ANOHNI
- Arca
- Isaiah Rashad
- Wallows
- BICEP
- Shygirl
- Dinosaur Jr.
- CHVRCHES
- MUNA
- Weyes Blood
- Julien Baker
- DIIV
- Metronomy
The full lineup is extensive, with hundreds of acts listed in the official poster. That list runs from Massive Attack and The Chemical Brothers to Fontaines D.C., Doechii, and Phoebe Bridgers, touching everything from rock to electronic music.
