Spotify, the leading music streaming platform, is gearing up for the release of its much-anticipated annual feature, Spotify Wrapped 2025. Fans are excitedly awaiting the moment when they can discover their listening stats from the past year, with social media soon to be flooded with users sharing their personalized data. Although Spotify has not announced an official release date, indications suggest that it could arrive as early as December 3, 2025.
The company has cultivated a yearly tradition that rivals major holidays, with Wrapped serving as a digital yearbook for music lovers. Recently, Spotify hinted at the upcoming release with a message encouraging users to “keep playing what you love” and promising to notify them when the feature is ready.
When Will Spotify Wrapped 2025 Be Released?
Over the past four years, Spotify Wrapped has consistently been released on a Wednesday. In 2024, the feature was unveiled on December 4, following November 29 in 2023, November 30 in 2022, and December 1 in 2021. Given this pattern, December 3, 2025, stands out as a likely release date. Spotify further teased the event on social media, asking, “Who do you think is on your Wrapped?” alongside a “coming soon” graphic.
For those eager to access Wrapped as soon as it is available, it is advisable to ensure that the Spotify app is updated and to keep an eye on notifications.
What Were the Top Songs and Artists of 2024?
As anticipation builds for 2025’s results, many are reflecting on the previous year’s statistics. In 2024, Taylor Swift emerged as the top artist globally, racking up over 26.6 billion streams since January 1. Following her were The Weeknd and Bad Bunny, while Drake, Billie Eilish, and Travis Scott rounded out the top six.
The most-streamed song of 2024 was “Espresso” by Sabrina Carpenter, followed by Benson Boone’s “Beautiful Things” and “Birds of a Feather” by Billie Eilish. The fourth and fifth spots were occupied by FloyyMenor’s “Gata Only” and Teddy Swims’ “Lose Control.” Many users are curious to see if these artists will repeat their successes this year.
A common question among Spotify users is when the platform stops counting their listening data for Wrapped. Although some have speculated that the cut-off date falls on October 31, Spotify has refuted this claim. The company posted on X, formerly Twitter, that “Wrapped is still counting past Oct. 31.” The actual end date for data collection is believed to be in early to mid-November, just before the Wrapped feature is released.
For those wondering if Wrapped is exclusive to Premium subscribers, the answer is no. Both Free and Premium users can access Wrapped, but Premium members receive additional personalized insights, such as the number of new artists discovered throughout the year.
As the excitement for Spotify Wrapped 2025 builds, users who cannot wait for Spotify can explore alternatives. The streaming service Deezer has launched “My Deezer Year,” which offers users a personalized review of their listening habits, including a music taste quiz to share with friends.
While anticipation mounts for Wrapped, Spotify’s ability to engage its users and create excitement around music consumption continues to set it apart in the competitive streaming landscape. As December approaches, many will be eagerly checking their devices for the long-awaited notification.
