Clairo has pulled out of Primavera Sound 2025 due to “logistical issues”.
The 26-year-old singer/songwriter had been due to perform at the festival in Barcelona on June 6 but has now axed her appearance completely.
She said in a statement on Instagram: “Unfortunately, I’m not able to make it to Primavera this year and I’m so sad about it, because Primavera is iconic and returning to the fest is something I’ve been looking forward to for ages.
“There are some logistical issues with getting my show to/from Primavera that have forced my hand here. I never want to give my fans anything but the absolute best set I can do, and that won’t be possible at this time. I’m so sorry again and I hope to be able to make it up to you sooner than later.”
A message from Primavera stated: “We are deeply saddened by this news and share the fans’ frustration. We, too, were very much looking forward to welcoming her again at Primavera Sound Barcelona.”
Sabrina Carpenter, HAIM, Beach House, TV On The Radio, Wet Leg and others will still perform on June 6, while Charli XCX and Chappell Roan will headline on the other days.
Meanwhile, Clairo previously revealed that Charli XCX helped her to learn to appreciate her old songs, after they performed her song ‘Sofia’ from her debut album ‘Immunity’ during a joint appearance at the Laneway festival.
She told Seventeen magazine: “It’s so funny—I didn’t think people would mind that I didn’t play it, but it became a problem. I got myself into a pickle.
“We were doing this festival in Australia and New Zealand called Laneway, and Charli was headlining. We played a few shows, and she told me she watched my set the day before. But she was like, ‘Where’s ‘Sofia’?’ and I said, ‘I don’t play it. Don’t you have any songs where you’re just like, Man, we’ve done it a lot’?’ Then we came up with the idea to play it together. I was like, ‘Well, if anyone can make me sing it again, I think it would be you, Miss Charli.’ So we planned on it and had no sound check. We sort of winged it and it was awesome.”
