As the year comes to a close, the highly anticipated Spotify Wrapped 2024 is just around the corner! Every December, millions of Spotify users worldwide look forward to this feature, which allows them to reflect on their listening habits and the unforgettable musical moments that defined their year. Whether you’re a devoted listener or a talented artist, here’s everything you need to know to maximize your Wrapped experience this year.
For listeners, Wrapped provides an in-depth, personalized summary of your most-played songs, favorite artists, preferred genres, and curated playlists from the past year. In 2024, Spotify reports that over 225 million users engaged with Wrapped content, which represents an impressive 40% increase in engagement compared to 2023. Wrapped continues to gain popularity every year as users revel in revisiting their audio highlights and discovering how their tastes measure up against those of their friends and peers.
Artists: Here’s How to Prepare for Wrapped 2024
Spotify Wrapped presents artists with an excellent opportunity to amplify their connection with fans. To ensure you’re “Wrapped-ready,” artists are encouraged to upload a brief video clip by November 15. This clip should be less than 30 seconds long, shot in a vertical format (similar to TikTok), and must be devoid of music, lyrics, explicit content, logos, or graphics.
Spotify emphasizes, “Speak directly to the fans who’ve had you on repeat all year. Record an under-30-second clip for the chance to be featured in Wrapped data stories and a special video feed for your top fans.” Following the Wrapped release, Spotify will showcase these clips across profiles, the Now Playing screen, Release Pages, and on the Home tab, facilitating ongoing connections between artists and fans well beyond the Wrapped period.
