The avant-garde festival reveals the first batch of artists visiting Barcelona in its next edition.
When we talk about electronic music in Barcelona, it is impossible not to think of Sónar. The Catalan festival is an essential date for lovers of experimental rhythms and a reference for DJs from all over the planet. That’s why the announcement of its lineup is always a long-awaited moment for everyone, and today, finally, we have the first confirmed acts for the 31st edition of the event that will take place on June 13, 14 and 15.
In this first batch of confirmations, we already know 70 activities of its program, among which there are musical performances, DJ sets, audiovisual conferences, discussion forums, masterclasses and the large exhibition area Project Area. A celebration that will once again turn the city into the world capital of music, creativity and technology for a week.
On the musical side, there are big names to highlight. Among them, those lucky enough to get their tickets will be able to enjoy the addictive groove of Kaytranada, the forcefulness of Charlotte de Witte and Reinier Zonneveld, the eclectic selection of Floating Points and the good vibes of Folamour and Ben Böhmer. Also worth mentioning are the multiple back-to-backs that will take over the DJ booths throughout the event, such as the Héctor Oaks B2B Partiboy69 or the trident formed by Eliza Rose, Dan Shake and Sally C.
Lovers of fast-paced beats will be more than pleased too, as some of its greatest exponents will be at Sónar 2024. Marlon Hoffstadt aka DJ Daddy Trance, Skin On Skin, horsegiirL, DJ Gigola and Gabber Eleganza presenting ‘The Hakke Show’ are some of those responsible for raising the BPM during the three days and two nights of the festival. And if live performances are your thing, Jessie Ware and Vince Staples are, without a doubt, the most acclaimed vocalists announced for the moment.
Three days in which we will also witness the presentations and exhibitions of some of the authors of the greatest technological and artistic advances in the electronic scene. A congregation of those responsible for the future of music and digital arts, all of them gathered once again at Sónar during the next 13, 14 and 15 June in Fira Montjuïc and Fira Gran Via. Press play to watch the official announcement of this first wave of artists.
