Olivia Rodrigo Wears El Clásico Jersey Ahead of Intimate Barcelona Show for Top Fans: ‘I Cannot Wait to See Them’

Olivia Rodrigo is heading to Spain for a high-profile collaboration with FC Barcelona, culminating in a special, intimate performance exclusively for her most dedicated supporters.

The singer-songwriter has joined forces with the iconic football club and Spotify to unveil a custom blue-and-red striped kit. The jersey replaces the traditional Spotify branding with Rodrigo’s own logo, marking a significant crossover ahead of the upcoming El Clásico showdown against Real Madrid at the newly renovated Spotify Camp Nou. The team will debut these special kits on the pitch during the match.

Fans eager to showcase their support can purchase the limited-edition apparel, which includes the match-day jersey, a “Força Barça” graphic tee, hoodies, bucket hats, and various accessories, through official Barça retail channels in Spain and online.

Beyond the pitch, Rodrigo and Spotify are set to host an exclusive concert in Barcelona on May 8. Designed to celebrate the deep connection between the artist and her fanbase, the invite-only event will prioritize top listeners identified via Spotify. This celebratory milestone arrives just ahead of the June 12 release of her third studio album, you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love. The project’s lead single, “drop dead,” recently hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and Rodrigo is slated to perform it during her upcoming appearance on Saturday Night Live.

“Seeing my own initials on an FC Barcelona kit for El Clásico feels surreal,” Rodrigo shared. “Bringing this collection to life with Spotify and Barça has been an incredible experience. Above all, I’m deeply moved to perform for the fans who have been with me since the beginning; returning to a city like Barcelona for them is everything. I can’t wait to see them all.”

While the men’s team will sport the Rodrigo-branded jerseys for their May 10 match, the FC Barcelona Femení squad will also showcase the kits during their Liga F fixture against Levante on May 6.

This collaboration continues Spotify’s four-year tradition of partnering with FC Barcelona to spotlight global musical icons, with previous jersey collaborations featuring artists such as Travis Scott, Coldplay, Karol G, and Drake. Notably, Rodrigo holds the distinction of being the youngest artist to ever headline the club’s uniform takeover.
