June 18–2026 (day: 20) · L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, Barcelona, Spain · Fira Gran Via
Sónar is a pioneering European festival that serves as a global benchmark for electronic music, digital culture, and creative technology. Founded in 1994, the festival is uniquely divided into two main components: Sónar by Day and Sónar by Night, alongside the Sónar+D conference which explores the intersection of art, science, and industry. The 2026 edition marks a significant evolution for the festival, consolidating its entire music program into a single continuous format at the Fira Gran Via venue. Attendees can expect a meticulously curated lineup of over 100 performances ranging from underground experimental sounds to mainstream electronic icons, complemented by immersive digital art installations, high-level industrial talks, and cutting-edge audiovisual shows.
