Sónar has announced the first 30 acts for its June 17–19, 2027 festival in Barcelona, including Carl Cox, Bonobo, Jessie Ware, Peggy Gou and Tokischa. The festival also plans to separate its daytime and nighttime programs again, with the daytime venue still to be announced.
Barcelona’s Sónar Festival has revealed the first 30 acts for its June 17–19, 2027 edition, naming Carl Cox, Bonobo, Jessie Ware, Peggy Gou and Tokischa among the performers. The announcement also sets out a venue change: Sónar by Day will move to a waterfront site that has not yet been named, while Sónar by Night will return to Fira Gran Via.
The festival says the 2027 program will include more than 80 performances and activities across the three-day event. The 30 names announced so far span electronic music, pop, rap and experimental music. They include Yung Lean, Cornelius, Romy, Honey Dijon, KI/KI, Oscar Mulero and Frost Children, as well as live performances by Aurora Halal and Goldie.
Carl Cox’s appearance will be his first at Sónar in more than two decades, according to the announcement. Bonobo is set to bring a new live show featuring material from Distance in Static. Goldie is also scheduled to perform live after an injury led him to cancel his planned 2026 appearance.
The initial bill includes several collaborative sets and projects. Ed Banger founder Busy P will play back-to-back with Girl Ultra; Chris Liebing and Speedy J will perform as Collabs3000; and Donato Dozzy is listed with Batu. The announced lineup also includes Adriana Lopez presenting Suut, Honey Dijon presenting Sinister, and Romy in a DJ set.
A Two-Site Festival Returns
The announcement gives prospective attendees an early look at a festival that is changing its layout as well as its lineup. After combining its daytime and nighttime programming at Fira Gran Via in 2026, Sónar says it will again split the programs between venues. That affects where visitors will need to travel during the event, though the daytime location has not been disclosed.
Sónar by Day will be paired with Sónar+D, the festival’s program focused on music, technology and creativity, at the new waterfront venue. Sónar by Night is scheduled for Fira Gran Via on June 18 and 19. The announced roster also mixes established international acts with collaborative projects, offering an early indication of the program’s range without establishing what the full bill will look like.

From 2026’s Combined Site
The venue plan marks a reversal of the arrangement used for the 2026 edition, when Sónar brought its day and night programming together at Fira Gran Via. For 2027, organizers say the daytime event will return to a separate site, now described as a central Barcelona waterfront location. Its address and capacity have not been provided in the supplied announcement.
The lineup news followed an unusual promotional campaign in which organizers staged Sónar’s death, including a mock funeral and an online book of condolences, before revealing plans for 2027. The campaign preceded the festival’s return announcement; it does not change the confirmed event dates or the still-pending venue details.
Daytime Venue Still Unnamed
The festival has not yet identified the waterfront location for Sónar by Day, so travel distances, access arrangements and the site’s facilities remain unknown. The announcement lists the first 30 acts but does not provide the complete schedule, set times or a day-by-day breakdown. It says the festival will have more than 80 performances and activities, leaving the remaining programming to be announced.
Ticket packages are on sale, according to the source report, including SonarPass and SonarPass+D in standard and VIP options. The material provided does not specify ticket prices, package terms or whether further acts will be announced in a particular order.
More Acts and Site Details
Organizers are expected to provide the daytime venue details and announce more of the program as the festival approaches. The next useful information for attendees will include the complete lineup, the schedule for June 17–19 and practical details for moving between the daytime site and Fira Gran Via.
For now, Sónar has confirmed the dates, the first 30 performers and the broad two-venue plan. Readers considering tickets should check the festival’s official channels for updates on venue access, schedules and ticket conditions, which were not fully detailed in the supplied report.
