Spotify Is Taking Over Four Locations in Sydney With Giveaways and Artist Celebrations for Wrapped Day 2025
Once you've posted your listening habits onto social media, go check out one of these events to celebrate Wrapped Day in person.
Dread it, run from it, actively expect it or celebrate its arrival — Spotify Wrapped arrives all the same. It's the biggest day of the year for admitting to music tastes, when we crack open the statistics and see what we've been listening to by the numbers. Here's hoping we've moved on from the pink pilates princess era. For Wrapped Day 2025, Spotify is taking the fun out of your Instagram stories with a series of IRL activations.
Celebrating some of the biggest bands in the game, Spotify is taking over four locations in Sydney today with events themed around specific artists, designed for their fans.
First up is something anyone in the Eastern Suburbs or CBD won't miss. Australian listeners love their dance music — streams of dance songs went up by 409 million in Australia — so Sydneysiders best keep their eyes on the skies for CYRIL and the Spotify helicopter flying around from 6am to 9.30am.
Next is for all the 5SOS fans. At World Square from 12–6pm, you'll find the 5SOS (Everyone's A) Star Walk, where you can add your handprints to the band's own in the 5SOS Walk of Fame. If 5SOS is in your top artists for Wrapped, you'll be able to walk away with a gift bag signed by the band, or you can snap a picture of the Walk of Fame to get it printed on a limited edition keyring.
Once the Wrapped Day dust has settled on Saturday, December 6, in the Pitt Street Mall, you can flex your hours spent listening to any artist by showing your results to the staff at a Spotify pop-up. They'll then reward you with one of six unique keyrings with your hours engraved on it. That's one way to remember 2025.
Over in Manly, Spotify is shining the light on the storied history of artists to come out of Sydney's Northern Beaches with a giant sand billboard dedicated to one of the latest stars of the area — Don West. West is one of Spotify's biggest rising artists of the year, whose music saw a 344% jump in listens throughout 2025. The billboard will be there from today through to Saturday, December 6.
