Barcelona will wear a special edition shirt featuring Olivia Rodrigo’s logo for El Clasico against Real Madrid on May 10, as part of the club’s ongoing partnership with Spotify.
The fixture, taking place at Spotify Camp Nou, marks the latest instalment of the streaming platform’s high-profile shirt takeover series - Rodrigo becomes the youngest artist to feature on the Barcelona shirt since the initiative launched, following previous collaborations with names including Ed Sheeran, Coldplay and The Rolling Stones.
The 23-year-old will also be performing in Barcelona at an intimate, invite-only concert on the evening of May 8th.

The match will also mark the first El Clasico to be held at Spotify Camp Nou since the stadium’s renovation, adding further significance to the occasion, with Barcelona set to wear the special-edition kit featuring the Grammy Award-winning artist.
A total of 1,899 limited-edition shirts, referencing the club’s founding year, will be made available via official Barça stores and online from 9am BST on May 1.
Olivia Rodrigo said: “Seeing OR on a FC Barcelona jersey for El Clásico, I don't even know how to process that. It’s been so fun seeing the jersey come to life and creating a full collection with Spotify and Barca.
"On top of that, getting to perform for the fans who've been listening since day one, in a city like Barcelona, is going to be so special. That's everything to me. I cannot wait to see them."
