Spotify Wrapped Has Dropped And Sydney & Melbourne Are Celebrating Big
From celebrity stunts to personalised merch, Spotify is bringing Wrapped to life with pop-ups across both cities this week.
It’s officially one of the most anticipated days of the cultural calendar: Spotify Wrapped has landed, and feeds everywhere are exploding with top artists, embarrassing deep cuts, and chaotic listening habits. If dissecting your Wrapped hasn’t quite scratched the itch, Spotify is taking things offline with a series of fun pop-ups and activations across Sydney and Melbourne.
1. Become the “Fifth Member” at the 5SOS (Everyone’s A) Star Walk — Sydney
5 Seconds of Summer fans, this one’s for you. For one day only, World Square is hosting a full 5SOS Walk of Fame complete with the band’s real handprints—and a chance for fans to create their own star on the strip.
Flash your Spotify Wrapped proving 5SOS made your Top Artists and you’ll score an exclusive signed gift bag from the band. Anyone can also snap a photo of the star path to have it printed on a limited-edition key ring.
