As the year winds down, music lovers have a new reason to celebrate — Spotify Wrapped 2025 is live, ready to reveal the soundtrack that shaped your year. After months of discovering new artists, rediscovering familiar favorites, and exploring playlists across genres, this year’s Wrapped offers a refreshed and more immersive look at each listener’s audio habits. First introduced in 2015, Spotify Wrapped has evolved into a global tradition, and the 2025 edition pushes the experience even further with new interactive features and deeper insights.
Covering listening activity from January through mid-November, Wrapped highlights each user’s top artists, songs, genres, and total minutes spent on the app. This year it also includes refined reports that analyze listening style, determine a “listening age,” and present a short quiz that challenges users to guess their top song of the year. Spotify’s updates also extend to podcasts and audiobooks, with personalized highlights such as top genres and even special messages from favorite authors or podcasters.
A standout addition this year is Wrapped Party, a new way to turn listening data into a friendly competition among friends. Up to ten people can join, and each participant receives awards based on their unique listening habits.
Depending on who’s in the group, users can see who logged the most minutes, who shares the most musical compatibility, or who is the most devoted fan of their top artist. Another major update, Wrapped Clubs, groups listeners into musical communities based on shared tastes. There are six clubs—Cloud State Society, Grit Collective, Serotonin, Full Charge Crew, Cosmic Stereo Club, and Soft Hearts Club—each representing a different listening personality. Within these clubs, users are assigned roles like archivist, curator, collector, specialist, and more, based on how their habits compare to others in the group.
Spotify Wrapped 2025 is available in nearly every region where Spotify operates, with a few participation requirements. Users must have listened to at least 30 tracks for more than 30 seconds each and streamed at least five different artists throughout the year. Wrapped can only be accessed through the mobile app on iOS or Android, where a dedicated Wrapped tab appears at the top of the screen. From there, listeners can explore their story and browse the top songs, artists, podcasts, and audiobooks in the U.S. and around the world.
This year’s Wrapped brings back the nostalgia and excitement fans look forward to while introducing fresh and engaging ways to understand how they spent the last year immersed in the world of audio.
