Originally founded as a showcase for Spanish noise bands in 2001, Primavera Sound has become one of the largest music festivals in Europe - attracting huge headline acts each year.
Early bands topping the bill included Pulp, Belle & Sebastian, Sonic Youth and Echo & The Bunnymen.
A move to its current seafront location in Barcelona’s Barc del Fòrum in 2005 upped the capacity, with festival-goers enjoying music from 4pm-6am each day.
Recent years have seen it branch away from idie music to a more disparate bill of rock, pop, dance music and hip hop.
And every June hundreds of Scots fly to the Spanish sun to enjoy a long weekend of music.
The headliners are set to be announced on Thursday, September 25, and will a join a role of honour that includes some of the biggest names in live music - including Blur, Radiohead, Motorhead. Charli XCX, Kendrick Lamar, Björk, Arcade Fire, Sabrina Carpenter, The Smashing Pumpkins and Arctic Monkeys.
9. Justin Bieber
Primavera has become more pop-oriented in recent years and stars don't get much more successful than Justin Bieber. He's not toured for a while for health reasons but has a new album, this year's 'Swag', to perform live. Another act confirmed for this year's Coachella, there's every chance he'll swing by Barcelona as part of a tour of European festivals. | Getty Images for Coachella
10. Ethel Cain
American singer-songwriter Ethel Cain is one of the buzziest artists around at the moment, with new album 'Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You' looling like making plenty of 'best of 2025' lists. She seems to sell out every show she announces in minutes, so could just about be at the stage of being a festival headliner, or at least appear second on the bill. | Getty Images for Coachella
11. Oasis
A bit of a long shot this (can a band be too big to headline Primavera?) - but there are already rumours that Noel and Liam are planning to continue to perform live after their current tour comes to an end in Brazil in November. It would be a real coup for organisers - and the Primavera audience. | AFP via Getty Images
12. Frank Ocean
It's been four years since Frank Ocean released 'Blonde' and it's heavily rumoured that his followup, perhaps titled 'FO5', will be released at the end of 2025. He'll be preumably touring it and might be wanting to make up for the fact that he had to belatedly cancel his headlining slot at Primavera in 2017. | AFP via Getty Images
