31.” And in 2022, Spotify tweeted in mid-October: “The only thing that we end on Halloween is eating candy corn. Stream (and snack) all through the year and we will see you in Wrapped season.
” Which pretty firmly pushes back on the idea that the tracking period ends in late October. Spotify does keep a tight lip on the exact details of the tracking period for its annual Wrapped roundups.
