A ‘reborn’ Sónar has announced the first 30 artists for its 34th edition, taking place from 17–19 June 2027. Bonobo, Tokischa, Yung Lean, Frost Children, Jessie Ware and Cornelius are among the first live acts confirmed and they will be joining DJ programme that includes Carl Cox, Peggy Gou, KI/KI, Romy, Oscar Mulero and Honey Dijon presents Sinister.
Running from Thursday 17 to Saturday 19 June, Sónar by Day will bring its daytime programme to Barcelona’s central waterfront. The move restores a closer relationship with the city, where the festival began in 1994, in an intimate setting designed to encourage discovery and bring artists and audiences together.
The announcement also serves to connect the dots between Sónar’s past and future with Sónar by Day returning to central Barcelona at a waterfront location, bringing music and Sónar+D together within the same space. Sónar by Night will return to its established two-night format at Fira Gran Via, with four stages hosting major live productions and artists from across international club culture.
Elsewhere in this first announcement figure Collabs3000 (Chris Liebing & Speedy J), Job Jobse, Aurora Halal live, Goldie live, Donato Dozzy & Batu, and Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith. Together, these first names span electronic live performance, pop, rap, dembow, techno, house and the wider spectrum of contemporary club music. SonarPass and SonarPass+D tickets are now available at special launch prices via sonar.es, with standard and VIP options.
