Girl group Red Velvet will perform at the Primavera Sound 2023 music festival in June, the only K-pop group to be invited this year.
The girl group will be performing on June 1 during the Barcelona leg of the festival and on June 8 in Madrid, the group’s agency SM Entertainment announced Thursday.
Notable headliners of the festival include the band Pet Shop Boys, Blur, rapper Kendrick Lamar, DJ Calvin Harris, singer-songwriter Halsey and more.
First started in 2001, Primavera Sound is one of the largest music festivals in Europe, held annually in Spain around June.
