Sónar is far more than a festival of advanced music and multimedia art: since 1994, it has positioned Barcelona as a global hub for sonic creativity and digital culture. The festival brings together electronic music, visual arts, technology and critical thinking in a distinctive programme that attracts audiences, artists and professionals from around the world.

The next edition, taking place on 18, 19 and 20 June 2026, presents an integrated format combining Sónar by Day and Sónar by Night into a continuous experience, alongside Sónar+D, the platform dedicated to exploring the intersections between creativity, innovation and technology. Over three days, the programme includes live shows, DJ sets, audiovisual installations, talks and professional gatherings.

Throughout the festival, Barcelona becomes a meeting point for audiences eager to engage with new trends and contemporary languages. Sónar continues to affirm its pioneering spirit and its role as a key platform for electronic music, sonic experimentation and digital culture on a global scale.
