On March 10, 2020, the Government of Catalonia ordered the cancellation or rescheduling of cultural events that had an attendance expectation of over a thousand people due to concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic. Thus, the twentieth edition of the Primavera Sound festival was moved to August 2020. However, the festival was later cancelled. The 2020 lineup included headliners like Lana del Rey, Massive Attack, The National, King Princess, Young Thug, Brockhampton, The Strokes, Kacey Musgraves, Tyler, the Creator, Bad Bunny and Pavement, who were supposed to reunite for the first time since their hiatus in 2010, among others.
