Primavera Sound Barcelona 2026 has revealed it’s 2026 lineup: Leading the way is The Cure. The 2026 edition will also feature Doja Cat, The xx after almost a decade of absence, Gorillaz with the tireless Damon Albarn at the helm with a brand new album The Mountain, Addison Rae, and the deafening reunion with shoegaze legends My Bloody Valentine. Five decades of popular music, from distorted rock to hip-hop, from pop to cutting-edge electronic music, condensed into these seven names that underline the multifaceted identity of the festival.

This lineup announcement officially kicks off the race to Primavera Sound Barcelona 2026, which will hold its main days from 4th to 6th June. And there will also be the opening day on Wednesday, the electronic music party Primavera Bits (featuring Carl Cox, Joseph Capriati, BLOND:ISH y Greta) on Sunday and a parallel programme yet to be revealed, which will make the 24th edition a whole week of music. Although the symbolic Parc del Fòrum site will be the epicentre of the activity, the Auditori Fòrum will also be back as the stage for some of the most special performances after a year’s hiatus, Primavera Sound will once again echo all around the city of Barcelona. In addition, Primavera Pro, the meeting point for Primavera Sound industry professionals, will celebrate its 17th edition between 3rd and 7th June with a programme of conferences and showcases to be announced soon.

Other notable artist’s taking part include, Mac DeMarco, Father John Misty, Bad Gyal and her collection of anthems in her only festival show in 2026, the perfect folk-rock sound of Big Thief, British rapper Little Simz, Alex G, Slowdive, Einstürzende Neubauten, Wet Leg. Lola Young will be making her debut not only at Primavera Sound but also in Spain.
