Barcelona’s Primavera Sound Festival, quite possibly the greatest annual music festival on the face of the planet, has unveiled the lineup for its 2026 edition. This year, the festival went all-in on our reigning pop-girl queens, booking Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter, and Charli XCX as headliners. This year, they’ve largely gone back to the classics. Acts near the top of the poster include the Cure, the xx, Gorillaz, My Bloody Valentine, and Massive Attack. There’s still plenty of pop on the lineup, with Doja Cat, Addison Rae, and PinkPantheress all listed prominently. (It’s especially fun to see Addison Rae listed right between Massive Attack and My Bloody Valentine.) But the vibe should be different next year, in a cool way.
