When does Spotify Wrapped 2026 come out?

Spotify Wrapped 2025 came out on 3 December 2025. Here is every recent release date, the likely dates for Wrapped 2026, what listening counts, and how to see your stats without waiting.

Spotify Wrapped 2025 came out on Wednesday 3 December 2025. Spotify hasn't announced a date for Wrapped 2026 yet, but the pattern makes it easy to guess: the last week of November or the first week of December, on a Wednesday.

When Wrapped has come out before

YearRelease date
2025Wednesday 3 December
2024Wednesday 4 December
2023Wednesday 29 November
2022Wednesday 30 November
2021Wednesday 1 December

On that pattern, the likeliest dates for 2026 are Wednesday 25 November or Wednesday 2 December. Spotify normally confirms the date only a few days ahead, so treat anything more exact than that as a guess.

What Wrapped counts

Wrapped covers your listening from 1 January until some point in the autumn. Spotify doesn't publish the exact cut-off; it has said in recent years that counting continues past the end of October. Whatever you play in December counts towards next year's.

A few things don't count: anything you play in a private session, and songs you play for less than 30 seconds.

How to see it when it's out

  • Open the Spotify app on your phone. There's a Wrapped banner on the home screen for the first few weeks.
  • Or go to spotify.com/wrapped.
  • Update the app first if you don't see it. Wrapped needs a recent version.

Your "Your Top Songs" playlist for the year stays in your library after the stories disappear in January.

You don't have to wait for December

Wrapped is one day a year, and it only shows what Spotify picks. If you want the same thing for any week, month or year, here is how to see your stats before Wrapped. Trackify also makes a recap every month, so you get twelve small Wrappeds instead of one big one.

If it is the genre breakdown you are waiting for, Spotify Pie Chart bakes one from your account, or from any playlist without signing in, and explains the genre names Wrapped tends to show.
