Spotify Wrapped 2025: New Stats, Games and Global Trends
Spotify has released Wrapped 2025, and this year’s update feels a little fuller and a lot more social. It dropped on December 3, 2025, giving listeners their yearly snapshot of what they streamed the most — music, podcasts, and audiobooks included.
What’s Different This Year
One of the biggest additions is Top Albums, something Spotify users have been asking for for years. Instead of guessing which record you replayed the most, Wrapped now tells you straight up.
Another new feature, Listening Age, compares your real age to the era your favorite songs came from. If your top tracks are mostly from the early 2000s or the ‘70s, Wrapped calls it out.
Audiobook activity gets more space too. You now see your Top Audiobook Genres, Top Authors, and even short messages from certain writers. Podcasts get similar treatment, with hosts from major shows sending brief thank-you clips.
All the usual stats still show up — Minutes Listened, Top Songs, Top Artists, and Top Genres. Your “Top Songs 2025” playlist now lists play counts for all 100 tracks, making it easy to see which songs you kept looping.
Anyone who listened to at least 30 songs and five artists throughout the year gets access. Private Session streams don’t count.
More Social Features and Games
Spotify is clearly leaning into the interactive side of Wrapped this year. The Top Artist Sprint shows how your top artists shifted from month to month, almost like a race. There’s also a Top Song Quiz, where the app makes you guess your most-played track before revealing the real answer.
The biggest shift is Wrapped Party, which lets you compare stats with friends in real time. It assigns small titles, shows how similar your listening habits are, and adds a bit of a competitive angle. The Fan Leaderboard also comes back with more detail, showing your rank among an artist’s listeners worldwide.
Artists, podcasters, and audiobook creators appear in short clips inside Wrapped, thanking fans directly.
The Biggest Artists and Songs of 2025
Bad Bunny takes the crown as the most-streamed global artist of 2025, hitting around 19.8 billion streams. Right behind him are Taylor Swift, The Weeknd, Drake, and Billie Eilish. In the U.S., Taylor Swift keeps her position at #1.
The global top song of the year is “Die with a Smile” by Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga, which carried strong momentum all year.
Wrapped Events Around the World
Spotify is also hosting more than 50 pop-ups and installations in over 30 cities, each tied to local listening trends. Locations like Manchester, Seoul, Mexico City, and New York are featuring artists such as Oasis, JENNIE, Bad Bunny, and Chappell Roan.
Creators across music, podcasts, and audiobooks get their own Wrapped dashboards packed with deeper analytics about their audience.
