With spring slowly approaching, it’s time to mark your calendar for Record Store Day 2025, which takes place this year on April 12.
As many music lovers know, Record Store Day is an annual event dedicated to celebrating and supporting physical record stores. Thanks to the revival of vinyl, many of these stores are experiencing a resurgence. However, the number of record shops today is still a fraction of what it once was, and finding places to browse vinyl, CDs, and even cassettes often requires knowing the right spots.
Record Store Day 2025 is the perfect opportunity to visit these stores and discover special, unique, or limited-edition releases—available exclusively in physical shops. In addition to exclusive items, many stores host live mini-concerts and other engaging activities, making it an exciting day for music enthusiasts.
A Global Event
Record Store Day is celebrated worldwide, with this year’s event taking place on April 12. Each country has its own dedicated website offering relevant information about local events and releases.
