Things you need to know
  • Look after your wristband, Sónar will not be held responsible for its loss. It contains both your money and your ticket(s), and you will not be able to enter the festival without it.  
     
  • DO NOT THROW AWAY YOUR WRISTBAND AFTER THE FESTIVAL. You’ll need it to reclaim a refund for any unused money. Without the alphanumeric code on it we won’t be able to process your refund. 
     
  • Your wristband is personal and non-transferrable. Sónar reserves the right to refuse admission should the wristband appear to have been cut, torn or otherwise tampered with. 
     
  • You can’t transfer money from one wristband to another, nor combine the balance from more than one wristband to make purchases. 
     
  • SonarCashless is the only way to pay at Sónar 2024, with the exception of the lockers at Sónar by Day and Sónar by Night which only accept credit or debit cards
