Primavera Sound 2026: Organisers reveal line-up for Barcelona festival - including Doja Cat, The Cure, Gorillaz & The xx

The annual music festival returns to Barcelona city centre from June 3 until June 7 next year, with some huge names on the bill. The Cure, Doja Cat, Gorillaz and The xx will all headline Primavera Sound 2026.

Post-punk legends The Cure will take their classic hits to Barcelona next June. They will be joined by Damon Albarn and company from Gorillaz, who last headlined the festival in 2022.

Doja Cat’s headline set has been announced as her fifth studio album, Vie, is released. The rapper had previously been set to appear at the 2020 edition of the festival before this was cancelled due to the Covid pandemic.

The xx look to be mounting a reunion after their Primavera headline slot was preceded by an announcement that they would be performing at Coachella next year. The indie-rock trio last released an album in 2017, with fans waiting patiently for the band’s return over the past eight years.
