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 will also return to separate daytime and nighttime venues, with the Sónar by Day waterfront site still to be announced.
Sónar has announced its first 30 acts for the 2027 festival in Barcelona, naming Carl Cox, Bonobo, Jessie Ware, Peggy Gou and Tokischa among the performers set for June 17–19. Organizers also confirmed a return to separate day and night venues, with the daytime site to be announced.
The initial lineup includes artists from electronic music, pop and experimental scenes. Alongside the headliners, confirmed performers include Yung Lean, Cornelius, Romy, Honey Dijon, KI/KI, Oscar Mulero and Goldie. Goldie is scheduled to perform live after an injury led him to cancel his appearance at the 2026 festival, according to the report by Consequence.
The announcement identifies several special sets. Cox is due to make his first Sónar appearance in more than two decades, while Bonobo will present a new live show featuring material from Distance in Static. The bill also includes Busy P and Mexican singer Girl Ultra playing a back-to-back DJ set, and Collabs3000, the project of Chris Liebing and Speedy J.
Other names among the 30 acts are Aurora Halal, Frost Children, Job Jobse, Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Adriana Lopez presenting Suut, and Donato Dozzy and Batu. The festival says the 2027 program will include more than 80 performances and activities; the announced list is an initial lineup, not the full program. Tickets are on sale, with SonarPass and SonarPass+ D packages available in standard and VIP options.
A Split-Site Festival Returns
The venue change is a major part of the 2027 announcement because Sónar is reversing the combined-site format it used in 2026. Sónar by Day will move to a waterfront location in central Barcelona and reunite there with Sónar+D, its program focused on music, technology and creativity. The specific site has not yet been disclosed.
Sónar by Night will return to Fira Gran Via on June 18 and 19. For attendees, the split means the festival’s daytime and nighttime programs will once again take place in different parts of the city. The final daytime address will be needed for visitors to plan travel between events and assess how the program fits together.
The first lineup also signals the festival’s range: established electronic acts such as Cox and Honey Dijon share the announcement with pop performers, experimental artists and collaborative projects. That mix is relevant to people deciding whether to buy passes before the complete schedule and venue information are available.

From 2026’s Combined Venue
For the 2026 edition, Sónar brought its daytime and nighttime programming together at Fira Gran Via. The 2027 plan restores separate locations: a central Barcelona waterfront site for daytime events and Sónar+D, and Fira Gran Via for the nighttime program.
The announcement followed a promotional campaign in which organizers staged the festival’s death, including a mock funeral and an online book of condolences, before revealing plans for 2027, according to Consequence. The campaign was promotion; the confirmed development is that the festival will take place on June 17–19, 2027, with its first 30 acts now named.
“Carl Cox is set for his first Sónar appearance in over two decades.”

Daytime Site Still Unnamed
Organizers have not yet announced the waterfront location for Sónar by Day, so its address and practical arrangements remain unknown. The initial announcement also does not provide performance times, a day-by-day artist schedule, or details of how the more than 80 performances and activities will be distributed across the festival.
The 30-act list is described as the first announcement, and the full program has not been released. The source material does not specify when further artists or schedule information will be announced. While tickets are on sale, the available report lists pass categories but does not give prices or further purchasing terms.
Full Program and Venue Details
The next key information for festivalgoers is the announcement of the Sónar by Day site, followed by further program details. Organizers have said the festival will offer more than 80 performances and activities, leaving additional acts and events to be announced beyond the initial 30.
Attendees can currently check the available SonarPass and SonarPass+ D options in standard and VIP categories. The festival runs June 17–19, 2027; Sónar by Night is scheduled at Fira Gran Via on June 18 and 19. A full timetable and confirmed daytime address will clarify how to plan for the three-day event.
