Primavera Sound 2025: The Dance Music Highlights You Can’t Miss

Primavera Sound 2025: The Dance Music Highlights You Can’t Miss

Primavera Sound Barcelona returns from June 5–7, 2025, with a genre-spanning lineup that once again places dance and electronic music at the heart of its identity. And while pop names like Charli XCX, Chappell Roan, and Sabrina Carpenter have been dominating headlines (and, with good reason), it’s the festival’s electronic programming that we’re most looking forward to.

Keep reading to get a closer look at the acts we’re most excited to catch at PS2025:

Dance Heavyweights Hit the Mainstage

Probably the artist of 2024, Charli XCX continues her club-forward BRAT era with a second straight Primavera appearance, blending hyper-pop with underground rave influences. Her set is expected to be a bold, beat-driven spectacle—one of the festival’s hottest crossover acts.

Jamie xx also headlines with his trademark mix of moody house, UK garage, and minimalistic rhythms. His live sets are immersive and emotional, perfect for fans of sophisticated electronic soundscapes.

House music pioneer Armand Van Helden also joins the bill, promising a feel-good, classics-laced set from one of the scene’s true legends. And if you’re craving deeper cuts, we highly recomment checking out SHERELLE, whose fast-paced, high-intensity style has become a standout in the UK club scene, and she’s poised to light up Primavera with raw energy.

Beatrice Dillon, Mau P and Other Must-See Electronic Acts

Pushing further into the experimental, Beatrice Dillon delivers complex, minimalist electronics that blend the cerebral with the danceable. For something more melodic, DJ Koze returns with his genre-defying mix of offbeat house and emotive club tunes—a master of the unexpected.

Emerging names are also well represented. Dutch producer Mau P, best known for his viral track “Drugs from Amsterdam,” is bringing his punchy, modern tech house to Barcelona. Anyma, the solo project from one half of Tale of Us, delivers an audiovisual experience rooted in melodic techno, merging festival-sized drops with immersive visual storytelling.

Deep house fans can look forward to Nora En Pure, whose serene, melodic sets provide a welcome exhale amid the chaos. BLOND:ISH, meanwhile, brings her vibrant blend of spiritual house and sustainability-minded vibes, perfectly suited to Primavera’s sunny seaside backdrop.
