The nights are getting longer, the temperature is decreasing and Christmas decorations are springing up all over the place, which means one thing.

It's nearly time for Spotify Wrapped.

Launched in 2016, Spotify Wrapped provides users with a round-up of all the music, podcasts and audiobooks they've been enjoying across the year.

It reveals which songs, artists and musical genres were your most listened to and presents them in the format of a neatly coloured graphic, which you can share across your social media accounts.

Or hide them away embarrassingly if your shortlist includes any songs or artists you'd rather people didn't know you'd been listening to on repeat.

Spotify Wrapped is typically released in either November or December each year, which means we're mere days away from finding out what the world has spent 2025 listening to.

Personally, I'm predicting a massive spike in Oasis streams, thanks to the band's sell-out reunion tour.

When will Spotify Wrapped come out in 2025?

Aside from teasing the round-up every year in late November, Spotify doesn't notify users about the exact date Wrapped will drop.

In most cases, it often just randomly appears when we open the app up one day.

However, this hasn't stopped people from taking an educated guess, with previous years seeing the drop between 29 November and 6 December.

The ambiguity around the release date is likely a clever marketing ploy on behalf of Spotify, as speculation and people clamouring for the round-up to be released works wonderfully as free promo.

Numerous people have also shared their best guesses of when they think we'll get our Wrapped playlists, with dates between the 2nd and the 6th of December being the most popular guess on X.

Several users have also pointed out that Spotify tends to drop either on a Wednesday or a Thursday, which means that 3 December or 4 December appear to be the current frontrunners.

"Past 4 years have been on a Wednesday on either the last week of November or first of December," noted one user, to which a second person agreed: "It always releases on a Wednesday... so December 3rd?"

Meanwhile, other users have pointed out that Spotify appears to be directing users towards updating their apps, which could be a further sign that Wrapped is on the way.

Regardless of the exact date, we don't have much longer to wait.
