Spotify for Artists’ live 2026 Wrapped guide sets a November 13 deadline for fan thank-you videos. Any artist can submit a vertical message up to 30 seconds for a chance to appear in top fans’ personalized stories and the Your Artist Messages feed. Spotify says submitting does not guarantee placement.

The current guide sets a near-term submission cutoff

Artists submit from Spotify for Artists on desktop: open Video & Visuals and select the Wrapped banner. The video must contain no music, explicit content, logos, on-screen text or filters; the caption can be no longer than 100 characters.

Artists in Spotify’s video-upload beta have a separate route to submit a landscape performance video in MP4 or MOV, under 20 minutes and at 1080p or higher. Spotify says eligible videos may appear in fans’ Your Top Songs playlist, qualify for royalties and charting, and stay on artist profiles after Wrapped. That upload option is limited to beta artists.
