In a move that has left fans disappointed worldwide, indie pop sensation Clairo has officially pulled out of the highly anticipated Primavera Sound 2025 festival. The 26-year-old singer, known for her hits like “Bags” and “Sofia,” was set to be one of the festival’s main attractions. But just weeks before the event, Clairo’s team announced her sudden withdrawal due to what they called “unforeseen logistical issues.”
Primavera Sound, which takes place in Barcelona and Porto every year, has already built huge buzz around its 2025 lineup. Clairo’s exit comes as a shock, especially since she was among the top-billed artists alongside other big names. Fans who bought tickets mainly to see her perform are now expressing frustration on social media.
In an official statement, Clairo’s representatives said, “Due to unavoidable logistical complications, Clairo will no longer be able to perform at Primavera Sound 2025. We sincerely apologize to fans and hope to make it up with future shows soon.” However, they did not go into details about what exactly went wrong, leaving room for speculation.
Some sources suggest travel conflicts and last-minute scheduling issues as possible reasons behind the decision. Others point out that organizing such massive tours across continents is often trickier than it appears, especially with growing production demands.
Primavera Sound organizers have yet to announce a replacement act but assured fans that the festival will go on as planned. “While we’re sad to confirm Clairo’s withdrawal, we are working hard to deliver an unforgettable experience with our incredible lineup,” the festival team stated.
Despite the setback, Clairo’s fans are still hopeful she will reschedule European dates later this year or in 2026. Until then, disappointment lingers among many who had eagerly waited for her comeback to the big festival stage.
