Music streaming service Spotify has revealed its list of the most musical cities in the UK - check it out below to see if your hometown features!
Spotify looked at the average number of minutes of music listened to per day by each Spotify user in each major city in the UK, and the results showed that music fans in London clock up more minutes listening to music each day than anywhere else in the UK. Nottingham came in second in the study, followed by Bristol, Edinburgh, and Leeds.
On the other side of the Top 5, Yorkshire city Sheffield took the #6 spot, closely followed by Glasgow, Manchester, and Liverpool. Completing the Top 10 is Birmingham - are you surprised by the results? Or unhappy that your city didn’t make it in there? Leave us a comment below
Will Hope, Director of Label Relations at Spotify, has commented on the results - he said:
“Given London’s rich musical history and brilliant music scene it’s no surprise that London tops the charts when it comes to having the biggest music fans in the UK. However, it’s interesting to see that the UK’s second biggest community of music fans are in Nottingham, pushing the more famously ’musical’ cities of Manchester and Liverpool down the list.”
