Phoebe Bridgers and Massive Attack Headline Primavera Sound Barcelona 2027

Landmark 25th Anniversary Lineup Revealed

The 2027 edition of Primavera Sound Barcelona marks a significant milestone for the venerable festival as it celebrates its 25th anniversary. For this landmark year, the festival has curated a lineup with female-fronted groups leading the pack. Among the stacked headliners for the event are Phoebe Bridgers, Massive Attack, and Hayley Williams. They are joined at the top of the bill by a diverse array of artists including Robyn, FKA twigs, Doechii, Caroline Polachek, and Turnstile.

The headline roster also features The Chemical Brothers, Fontaines D.C., Bad Gyal, Lola Young, ADÉLA, and Prospa. A notable addition to the top tier is a closing back-to-back set from Skrillex and Ninajirachi. In total, the festival is expected to host more than 150 acts, maintaining its reputation for high-density, multi-genre programming across the weekend.

Extensive Billing and Artist Categories

Beyond the primary headliners, the festival has revealed a packed second billing that spans various musical styles. This group includes established acts such as Pavement, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, Underworld, Dinosaur Jr., Anohni, and Tinashe. The lineup also features Kim Petras, Bleachers, Julien Baker, Vashti Bunyan, and Bonnie “Prince” Billy, as well as a return set from Atlas Sound.

The festival organizers have highlighted several categories of performers within the 2027 roster. Leading contemporary singer-songwriters such as Weyes Blood and Greg Freeman will perform alongside "rock flag-bearers" like Gilla Band, Friko, and Lip Critic. The lineup is further bolstered by "party-starters" including Arca, Snow Strippers, Shygirl, and the collective S.A.S.S., which consists of Saoirse, Moxie, Peach, and Shanti Celeste. Other performers scheduled to appear include Juana Molina, Mabe Fratti, Converge, and "rising insurgents" such as Angine de Poitrine, Underscores, @, Westside Cowboy, B0YG1RL, and Ear.

Ticket Information and Festival Schedule

The main festivities at Barcelona’s Parc del Fòrum are scheduled to run from Thursday, June 3, through Saturday, June 5. However, the celebration begins earlier with opening parties on the evening of Wednesday, June 2. The festival has also indicated that parallel programming will extend the celebration to a full week. While the opening day slate is free, the specific schedule for those events will be announced soon.

Tickets for the event will be released in two phases. The Fan Sale is scheduled to begin on October 8, and interested attendees must register via the festival’s official website to participate. The General Sale will follow on October 9, with tickets made available through the Fever platform.

Electronic Programming and Closing Events

The festival will conclude on Sunday, June 6, with an all-day takeover focused on Electronic music. This closing party, known as Primavera Bits, will be headlined by Richie Hawtin, Four Tet, and Dixon. This final day of programming serves as the official wrap-up for the 25th-anniversary celebrations.

Historical Context and Returning Performers

The 2027 edition follows a 2026 festival that utilized a similar multi-headliner-per-night model. The previous year featured artists such as Addison Rae, The Cure, The xx, and My Bloody Valentine. The 2027 lineup also represents a return for Massive Attack, whose performance at the 2026 festival was cancelled due to a significant rainstorm on Friday night. That same storm also led to the cancellation of a set by Doja Cat. The 2027 appearance marks a highly anticipated return for the group to the Primavera stage following those weather-related disruptions.
