Sonar by Day
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Hall
A space for experimental proposals connected to other disciplines, including pop and the highly evasive dance music. Showcases by frontline labels (Tigerbeat6, Plug Research, Twisted Nerve) and an access to SonarMŕtica.

SonarVillage
The lungs of the festival: bar, artificial lawn, sunshine and an active stage for ten hours running, with an average of ten performances daily. A space for indietronics, hip hop and relaxed dance music trends.

SonarLab
A sound laboratory where chosen labels display their production and influences. A must for those who wish to analyse music under its surface. Seven sessions daily.

SonarComplex
Sound explorers only: experimental music without refrains or concessions within the exceptional surroundings of the ground floor of the Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona. Individual exhibits of turntablism, the Staalplaat label and avant-garde approaches to the guitar.

SonarDome
More than 2,000 m2 of refreshing music, slightly related to the avant-garde and pop, right in the centre of the square Plaça dels Ŕngels and looking onto the impressive glass facade of the MACBA. A stage for taking it easy and entertainment.

SonarCinema
A selection of showcases presenting a comprehensive look at the cinema of today linked to new technologies, electronic music and multimedia.

SonarMatica

Viva Helsinki: an overview the new avant garde artistic trends that are taking place in the constantly vibrant Finnish capital.

Conferences & Debates
Round tables, forums and debates on current issues that are in orbit around the electronic music and multimedia universes.

Sonarama
A showcase of advanced art in many formats: audiovisual concerts, net-art, software demos and interactive installations.

SonarExtra
SonarExtra encompasses all the exhibitions which, though they were not produced specifically for the festival, but by associate institutions such as La Virreina, the MACBA or the Centre d'Art Santa Mňnica, will be shown within the framework of Sónar. Yet another option that brings us closer to new areas in design, installations and interactive multimedia.
   
   
 

Sónar by Night
----------------------------------------------------------------------

SonarClub
An imposing esplanade that holds more than 7,000 people and is able to withstand the blasts of the most renowned techno and house DJs of the moment. SonarClub is the epicentre of Sónar by Night, the setting for concerts attracting the largest crowds and the loudest vats.

SonarPark
A medium capacity venue (around five thousand people) which will host the most atypical nocturnal programme, presenting derivatives of rock, futurist hip hop and slightly experimental cut'n'paste electronics.

SonarPub
The Sónar terrace during its night phase. For open air enjoyment of a menu of dance mingled with house, broken rhythms and good vibes all round, with the special appearance of the labels BPitch Control and Keep Diggin’.

SonarCar
The traditional bumper cars with piped music from SonarClub: speed, lights, crashes, techno (and Pet Shop Boys) behind the steering wheel.
