Olivia Rodrigo Brings Her Biggest Hits to Spotify Billions Club Live in Barcelona: 5 Key Moments

Olivia Rodrigo played an invite-only Spotify Billions Club Live show in Barcelona before El Clásico. Here are the night’s biggest moments.

Olivia Rodrigo turned Barcelona’s Teatre Grec into a one-night celebration of her biggest Spotify milestones on 5/9/2026, performing an invite-only Spotify Billions Club Live set for about 1,500 of her most devoted fans just ahead of El Clásico at Spotify Camp Nou.

Billboard was on site for the concert, which arrived wrapped in the kind of full-throttle spectacle that made the whole evening feel bigger than a standard promo stop. The outdoor amphitheater on Montjuïc mountain was dressed up for Rodrigo’s new partnership with FC Barcelona, with merch stands for the football collab, free food and drinks, and a photo moment built around all nine of her Billions Club plaques. Add in the setting itself, with the venue’s Ancient Greece vibe and the lush landscaping around it, and the whole thing had the feel of a carefully staged victory lap.

That wasn’t lost on the crowd, either. The free show was reserved for fans “selected through their listening on Spotify,” according to an early press release, and those listeners showed up ready to make some noise. Rodrigo has followed similar billboards-to-fan-event plays by Bad Bunny, Miley Cyrus and others, but Barcelona gave the idea its own charge. There was a lot to celebrate: her streaming numbers, the new Barça tie-in, and a catalog that, for all its youth, already carries real singalong weight.

Here are the moments that stood out most.

A GUTS-era frame to open and close the night

Rodrigo bookended the set with two of the sharpest punches from GUTS, just as she’s done in her 2024-25 tour dates and festival appearances. She kicked things off with “Bad Idea Right?” and the room immediately moved with her. She and her all-female band seemed to be riding the same wave, with the crowd and Rodrigo herself literally jumping through the opener. Thirteen songs later, she closed with “Get Him Back!,” and the finale landed with the kind of beat-clapping, shout-it-back energy that can only come from a room full of people who know every word.

Neither song belongs to the Billions Club, which made their placement feel more pointed than decorative. This was Rodrigo nodding to the era that turned her into a household name while still centering the records that brought everybody here in the first place.

Barcelona was clearly part of the mood

Before a pair of acoustic songs with guitarist Arianna Powell, Rodrigo took a seat cross-legged at the edge of the stage and spoke directly to the crowd about her time in the city. “I’ve been having so much fun in Barcelona,” she said. “I’m not blowing smoke, I love it. Every time I get to come here, it’s like a little vacation. You guys are the most beautiful city ever.”

She also mentioned that she had been “practicing my Spanish” for the occasion, then offered a heartfelt “Muchas gracias estar por aqui conmigo,” which translates to “Thank you so much for being here with me.” It was a small moment, but it fit the night’s loose, intimate tone inside a show with a lot of machinery around it.

The Livies made the evening feel like a home game

Even with all the Spotify branding and football crossover around the venue, the audience was the real engine. The amphitheater’s volume never really let up, but the fan response went beyond simple screaming. Before Rodrigo moved to the grand piano, the crowd broke into a sports-style chant, with some fans waving Olivia Rodrigo x Spotify x FC Barcelona scarves and shouting, “y reina, y reina, y reina, reina, reina!”

Later, before “Drop Dead,” one fan handed Rodrigo a flower bouquet that matched the night’s pink-heavy look. Rodrigo gave just as much back. During “Deja Vu,” she pointed different parts of the venue into the singalong, and for “jealousy, jealousy,” she stepped off the stage and into the crowd. The connection between performer and audience felt unusually direct, even for a room packed with superfans.

One Billions Club track stayed off the setlist

Rodrigo has nine songs that have passed a billion streams on Spotify, including four that have cleared two billion, but not all of them made the cut in Barcelona. “All I Want,” her 2020 breakthrough from High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, was the most notable omission. That makes sense given where her core catalog sits now, though the song is still officially hers alone as writer, and some fans clearly had hopes.

After “Get Him Back!” ended the show, a few in the crowd started chanting the title of the Disney-era track as if they could will an encore into existence. It didn’t happen. Crew members were already taking the stage down.

The set was short, tight, and heavy on the hits

Rodrigo’s Barcelona performance ran 14 songs in just under an hour, with eight Billions Club tracks and five other songs from her core catalog. It was compact, but not slight. This was a set built to move fast and land hard, with the songs doing most of the talking.

“Bad Idea Right?”*

“Ballad of a Homeschooled Girl”*

“Vampire”

“Drop Dead”*

“Drivers License”

“Traitor”

“Jealousy, Jealousy”

“Happier”

“Lacy”*

“Favorite Crime”

“Deja Vu”

“Brutal”

“Good 4 U”

“Get Him Back!”*

Coming only two days before FC Barcelona and Real Madrid face off at the recently renovated Spotify Camp Nou, the timing only sharpened the event’s sense of occasion. Barça could be crowned league champions if they win, and players will also wear an exclusive version of their blaugrana jersey with Rodrigo’s logo replacing Spotify’s. But in Barcelona, the bigger takeaway was simpler: Rodrigo came in with the hits, and the fans met her halfway.
