The Cure, Gorillaz y Massive Attack headline a record-breaking Primavera Sound 2026
Primavera Sound 2026 has announced a stellar line-up. The 24th edition of the festival, taking place from 3 to 7 June at Parc del Fòrum, will feature The Cure as the main headliner, alongside Gorillaz, Massive Attack and The xx, confirming the British dominance at this edition.
Major crowd-pullers will arrive from the United States, including Doja Cat, who will make her debut in Spain, Addison Rae and Skrillex, as well as indie reference points such as Mac DeMarco, Father John Misty and Big Thief. The programme is completed by artists such as PinkPantheress, Slowdive, Peggy Gou and Carl Cox, consolidating the mix of styles that characterises the festival.
The local scene will also have a central role. Bad Gyal leads the Catalan representation alongside her sister Greta, together with Ven’nus, Pavvla, Renaldo&Clara and Rojuu. Nationwide, names such as Guitarricadelafuente and Rusowsky stand out.
After reaching a record 293,000 attendees in 2025 and an economic impact of €339.5 million, Primavera Sound 2026 has set itself the challenge of repeating the feat. With a line-up combining legends, global stars and emerging talent, Barcelona is preparing for another historic chapter in its most international music event.
