Yes, the most wonderful time of year is upon us once again – the season of Spotify Wrapped. While we never quite know when the annual, personalised recap of all our most-streamed music from the year is going to land, we can make an educated guess that, based on previous years, the Wrap is imminent.
So, how do you view yours, when does Spotify actually track your listening habits, and who are looking like the year’s top artists? We’ve answered all that below – scroll on for everything you need to know about Spotify Wrapped 2025, and keep your eyes peeled for that all important notification.
Recommended: These are the best albums of 2025, according to Time Out.
What date does Spotify Wrapped come out?
While the date varies a little each year, Spotify wrapped tends to land either on the last Wednesday of November or the first Wednesday of December. One of those was obviously last week, and the other is tomorrow, so it’s looking pretty likely that the roundup is imminent.
How to see your Spotify Wrapped for 2025
All you need to do is open the Spotify app – if you have it downloaded onto your phone, you’ll have a notification to say that it’s ready and waiting for you to click through, cringe at or boast about, and share.
How long does Spotify Wrapped track your listening and when does it stop?
The app tracks your listening from the beginning of the year until around mid-November, so any very recent listening habits won’t be reflected in your overall stats. Good news for those of us who start blaring Christmas music embarrassingly early.
What were the biggest artists and most-streamed songs on Spotify this year?
While Spotify’s final data is still being all wrapped up, Spotify Pie has identified that The Weeknd is 2025’s most streamed artist, closely followed by Bruno Mars, Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande.
As for the most-streamed songs, Kworb.net reveals the top three are ‘Ordinary’ by Alex Warren, ‘DtMF’ by Bad Bunny and ‘Golden’ by HUNTR/X – but stay tuned for Spotify’s official stats.
