Just one year ago, we were presenting Teens Media Network (TMN) at the Primavera Pro Barcelona Ideas Showroom. Now, one year later, we’re thrilled to announce that TMN is officially collaborating with Primavera Pro—creating content during the event and covering its conferences, networking activations, and music showcase festival.
This isn’t just a milestone for TMN—it’s a powerful vote of confidence in our work. In just a year, we’ve gone from pitching our ideas to actively contributing to one of the most important music industry events in the world. We are incredibly grateful to the organizers for believing in our vision and giving us this opportunity—not just to create and produce content, but to provide young creators with real-world experience in the field.
At TMN, we see this as a live laboratory—a space to experiment with new formats, engage directly with industry professionals, sharpen our skills through hands-on experience, and deliver prime-quality content to our beloved audience in Europe, Latin America, and the United States. We’ve arranged a diverse lineup of productions, including exclusive interviews with music professionals, artists, and industry insiders. And, of course, we’re here to learn, grow, and most importantly—have fun!

Primavera Pro is the professional section of Primavera Sound Barcelona, a global meeting point for music industry professionals where forward-thinking discussions, networking, and innovation take center stage. This year’s Primavera Pro takes place from June 4 to 8, with conferences and activities concentrated at the emblematic CCCB: Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona from June 4 to 6.
The program will feature influential speakers such as Cori Chinnici from BMAT, with experience at MMF UK, Mycelia, Kobalt, AWAL, and Fuga; Lau Frias, A&R Director at Secretly Group, known for championing underrepresented sounds and artists; and Fernando Grediaga, General Manager of HYBE Latin America, leading talent development and regional expansion.
Also joining is Paul Sloan from Billions Australia / Supersonic Australasia, who works with artists like Nick Cave, Bon Iver, and King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, bringing deep expertise in touring and event production.
Likewise, Primavera Pro will showcase a diverse array of musical talent, including Naaz, who takes the Kurdish slogan “Jin, Jiyan, Azadî” (“Woman, Life, Freedom”) and turns it into an anthem about struggle and liberation; Xicu, who has worked with standout artists like Julieta, Socunbohemio, and Maria Hein—his music blending experimental pop, urban influences, and distortion to push conventional boundaries; Austrian singer-songwriter OSKA, known for her emotionally charged performances; and Welsh rapper LEMFRECK, winner of the Welsh Music Prize.

PRIMAVERA SOUND BARCELONA
But that’s not all—TMN will also be covering Primavera Sound Barcelona taking place June 4 to 8 at the Parc del Fòrum. One of the most iconic music festivals in the world, this year’s lineup is absolutely stacked, with acts ranging from the legendary LCD Soundsystem to new pop icon Chappell Roan. In addition to these international headliners, the festival proudly features local talent such as the Madrid-based indie pop band Hinds and Barcelona-based singer-songwriter Amaia. Whether it’s indie icons, electronic pioneers, or the freshest new sounds, Primavera Sound Barcelona 2025 is set to deliver one of the most exciting festival experiences anywhere. Yes, you heard that right—there is no other festival in the world that captures today’s diverse music landscape with this level of inclusivity and boldness.
And I can prove it—having attended Primavera Sound Barcelona since 2010, that’s 15 years in a row (pandemic exception). I’ve seen it evolve, adapt, and consistently deliver a festival experience unlike any other. This is why being part of it with TMN means so much!
