Update, December 4, 2024: Spotify Wrapped 2024 is officially out. Scroll down or click here to see what it looks like.

Ever since its initial launch in late 2016, Spotify Wrapped has become one of the most popular Spotify features.

Heck, it just might be the most popular feature of any streaming service ever! It might sound like an overstatement, but we genuinely haven’t found many features on platforms like Spotify that users are hyped about throughout the year.

And it’s not like other streaming services haven’t tried, most of them now have Wrapped-like features like the Apple Music Replay.

At the end of each year, usually in late November, Spotify gives its users a yearly playlist with interesting facts about our listening habits and some neat Spotify stats on how we have used the music platform.

So, in this article, we’ll focus on the Spotify Wrapped 2024, when it’s coming out, and how to find it.

How to See Spotify Wrapped: Fastest Answer

The fastest way to see your Spotify Wrapped is to visit Spotify.com/Wrapped. That’s it, you’re done. But, since this link doesn’t offer Wrapped access throughout the year, you can also access the Wrapped playlist by typing “spotify wrapped” into your Spotify search bar. You’ll see a playlist titled “Your Top Songs” for individual years you’ve been a Spotify user.

What Is Spotify Wrapped?

Spotify Wrapped is an annual Spotify feature that offers users a personalized summary of their listening habits over the past year, plus a playlist of the top 100 songs. Wrapped covers your favorite artists, genres, but also podcasts.

What makes the feature unique is how it shapes the data and offers viral badges and sharable content that users just devour every single year. It’s easily the most popular Spotify feature, no wonder it’s been up and running since 2016.

In essence, Spotify shows you what you have listened to most during the year and prompts you with a nice presentation and fun facts about your listening taste for music or even podcasts. It’s also a helpful tool that allows us to reflect on the year that was and look forward to what’s in store for the future.

The best part of Wrapped is seeing how many people are listening, discovering new artists, and connecting over their shared love of music. It shows you in an Instagram stories format that you can share through your social media.

For Spotify Wrapped 2023, the service came up with some interesting new features. When opening their Spotify Wrapped, users had a city attached that better describes their musical preferences. Not just that, it also had a personalized video message from artists who are among your Top 5 favorites.

Then, Spotify Wrapped 2024 brought new details like showcasing the user’s musical evolution throughout the year.

Spotify gathered 60,000 artists around the globe for this, and they recorded custom dedicated videos for fans that feature them among the top listened-to artists of 2023. Pretty cool!

Another cool new feature on Spotify Wrapped 2023 was the 12 different characters and musical personality traits associated with your music-listening habits.

To quote Louisa Ferguson, Spotify’s Global Head of Marketing Experience:

“There’s something about this past year that felt especially chaotic with regards to how people consumed culture. We really wanted to acknowledge that feeling because it felt very accurate to 2023. Amidst all this, we realized that ‘your Wrapped doesn’t lie.’ The data is real. And so we leaned into creating the realest Wrapped ever.”

This Is What Spotify Wrapped 2024 Looks Like

Spotify Wrapped 2024 was officially released on December 4, 2024. It stuck to the tried-and-true concept but added interesting touches, like showcasing your musical evolution throughout the year. This is what the 2024 Wrapped looks like, start-to-finish.

1. The Wrapped 2024 Welcome Message

The 2024 Wrapped starts with a few welcome slides to get things going.

2. Your Global Listening Stats

The next few slides showcase your global listening data, including your total listening minutes, your biggest listening day and the total number of songs played. The last slide will also announce that your No. 1 song for 2024 is up next.

3. Your Most-Listened Song in 2024

Then, Wrapped will show you your most-listened song for the year, your total number of streams, and the percentage of the top listeners you fall into.

4. Your Most-Listened Songs

The next couple of slides will be about your most-listened songs. You will get a top 5, to be specific.

5. Your Musical Evolution

The next segment is pretty interesting. It will show you how your listening habits have evolved, highlighting the artists and genres you listened to during different months of the year.

6. Your Top Artists

Then, Spotify will show you the artists you listened to the most in 2024, including your No. 1 artists and the top percentage of listeners you fall into. You will also get your Top 5 most-listened artists.

7. Summary

Wrapping up the Wrapped 2024, Spotify will thank you for joining the ride and show you the summary card that you can share via social media. Note that you can also individually share every Wrapped slide.

This is just the beginning, though, because Spotify Wrapped also includes several playlists.

How to See Your Top Songs 2024 on Spotify

To see your personalized Spotify Wrapped 2024 playlists, just open your Spotify mobile app and tap “Wrapped” in the top menu.

This will take you to more than half a dozen playlists, including “Your Top Songs 2024”, “Your Music Evolution 2024”, “Your Artist Clips”, and global Wrapped playlists like “Top Artists of 2024 Global” and “2024 in Music”.

How to See Spotify Wrapped 2024

The 2024 Spotify Wrapped is hard to miss. Just know that you have to use your Spotify mobile app to see the majority of the Wrapped features, including the stat slides and personalized playlists. You can still access the global Wrapped 2024 playlists on your desktop.

Yes, there is the Spotify.com/Wrapped page, but it only shows you the QR code for opening the 2024 Wrapped on your mobile app.

Now, if you just open your Spotify mobile app, you will see Wrapped prominently displayed in the top menu and on the home page itself.

Now, on desktop and laptop devices, if you open your desktop app or the web player, you will find a dedicated Wrapped 2024 section simply by scrolling your front page. On my account, I found it after the “Your favorite artist” segment.

If you click on “Show all”, you will see the global Wrapped playlists but none of the personalized playlists and stats that are unique to you.

Can I See Spotify Wrapped on My Desktop or Laptop Computer?

Yes, Spotify Wrapped is available on desktop and laptop apps. Just open your browser and access the page spotify.com/wrapped/. If you are logged into your Spotify account, the wrapped cards will show up automatically.

Otherwise, you will be directed to the Wrapped page, where you can log into your Spotify account and see your special Spotify Wrapped.

When Does Spotify Wrapped Come Out?

Spotify Wrapped comes in late November or early December every year. In 2024, Spotify Wrapped came out on December 4. The streaming platform rolls it out at about the same time, which makes perfect sense considering we are talking about a yearly wrap-up.

The playlist that comes with Spotify Wrapped contains your top 100 songs for the year. It’s an excellent way to make the year that it is ending stay in your memory and eternalize it in a playlist. More than that, you can even share that playlist with all your friends and social media followers by using the Tune My Music Share feature.
