Phoebe Bridgers, Hayley Williams, Doechii and Fontaines DC, among the headliners of Primavera Sound 2027
The festival will celebrate its 25th anniversary from June 2nd to 6th next year at the Parc del Fòrum
BarcelonaNot Rosalía, nor Madonna, nor Charli XCX, which were three of the names that had circulated in the rumors. The headliners of the 25th edition of the Primavera Sound, which will take place at the Parc del Fòrum from June 2nd to 6th, are artists such as Phoebe Bridgers, Doechii, Hayley Williams, FKA Twigs, Robyn, Caroline Polachek and Bad Gyal, and groups such as Turnstile, Fontaines DC, The Chemical Brothers and Prospa, in addition to Massive Attack, the Bristol band that could not perform in the 2026 edition due to a downpour.
In this lineup of the festival's big names, American rapper Doechii stands out, who will make her debut at Primavera Sound. Heir to a lineage represented by artists like Lauryn Hill, Missy Elliott and Doja Cat, the Florida native will arrive with the backing of Alligator bites never heal (2024), awarded the Grammy for best rap album. Another debutant at the festival is American Hayley Williams, who in 2018 performed at the Sant Jordi Club leading the pop-punk group Paramore. Now she will return as a spokeswoman for diverse discomforts, as she confirmed on the magnificent album Ego death at a bachelorette party (2025). Also making their debut at the festival is Prospa, who on June 20, 2026, performed at the Sónar party at the same Parc del Fòrum. This duo from Leeds produces a house sound with a rave spirit, evident in tracks like Free your mind, which connects them with The Chemical Brothers and Daft Punk, like an update three decades later.
The other headliners are well known at Primavera Sound or other Barcelona festivals, such as the Swedish Robyn, the British FKA Twigs, the American Caroline Polachek and the Maresme native Bad Gyal. It is worth noting that some are in a great artistic moment. For example, the Californian singer-songwriter Phoebe Bridgers, who a few months ago released a more than notable album: Lost weekend (2026). It is the same case for the Irish band Fontaines DC, who have delivered memorable concerts in previous editions of Primavera Sound and who will now return as part of the tour of festivals for the album tour Dopamine chamber (2026) which on October 24th stops by the Sant Jordi Club with tickets sold out.
The programming once again combines proposals with more than three, four and even five decades of history with others that have emerged in recent years. Among the veterans, key names in indie rock like Pavement and Dinosaur Jr., illustrious figures of the most personal singer-songwriter style like Bonnie Prince Billy and the electronic duo Underworld, in addition to the British folk legend Vashti Bunyan and the ever-unpredictable ANOHNI. As for the younger generations, one of the main attractions is Angine de Poitrine, the Quebec experimental rock duo. There is also the Irish folk band Madra Salach, the popstar from Slovakia Adèla and the British artists Lola Young –who was announced for the 2026 edition but could not perform there– and Erin LeCount.
Also pay attention to the presence of Bleachers, the band led by producer and songwriter Jack Antonoff, a collaborator of artists such as Taylor Swift, Lana del Rey, Lorde, Sabrina Carpenter and Phoebe Bridgers. Likewise, it is worth highlighting Jesu, the post-metal project created by the Briton Justin Broadrick after the first phase of Godflesh. The metal offering, smaller at the festival but always with relevant names, also includes the American grindcore band Full of Hell.
Regarding the Catalan artists, in addition to Bad Gyal, the Primavera Sound 2027 lineup includes names such as Al·lèrgiques al Pol·len, Fades, Guillem Gisbert, Mishima and John Talabot.
It will be the 25th edition of a festival that was born as such in 2001 at the Poble Espanyol, since before it was a series of concerts in different venues. Since 2005 it has been held at the Parc del Fòrum, and in the years 2020 and 2021 it was not held due to the restrictions marked by the coronavirus pandemic. That is why the 2027 one is the 25th edition.
