Every year, millions of Spotify users wait for one big moment — Spotify Wrapped. It’s the colorful, fun recap that shows your top songs, artists, genres, podcasts, and total listening time for the year. Wrapped has become a tradition, and 2025 is no different.
So, the big question is…
When Is Spotify Wrapped 2025 Coming Out?
Based on Spotify’s release history over the past few years, Wrapped usually drops between November 29 and December 5.
Here are the past dates:
-
2024: December 4
-
2023: November 29
-
2022: November 30
-
2021: December 1
Following this pattern, Spotify Wrapped 2025 is expected to be released on December 3, 2025 (most likely a Wednesday).
Spotify prefers releasing Wrapped in the first week of December, so this date makes the most sense.
Just make sure your Spotify app is updated — Wrapped usually appears first on mobile devices.
Does December Listening Count Toward Spotify Wrapped?
This is one of the most common questions people search.
No, December listening does not count.
Spotify normally stops tracking Wrapped data in mid-November each year.
So anything you listen to late November or December won’t affect your 2025 stats.
Why Isn’t My Spotify Wrapped Showing Up?
When Wrapped drops, not everyone sees it at the same time.
Here are common reasons and fixes:
✔ Your app isn’t updated
Update Spotify to the latest version.
✔ Wrapped rolls out by region
Some countries get it a few hours later.
✔ You didn’t listen enough
Spotify sometimes requires a minimum amount of listening activity.
✔ You’re checking the wrong place
Wrapped appears on the Home screen as a big banner once it’s live.
