Sónar has announced 30 acts for its June 17–19, 2027 festival in Barcelona, including Carl Cox, Bonobo, Jessie Ware, Peggy Gou and Tokischa. The festival will separate its day and night programs again, with the daytime site still to be announced and nighttime events returning to Fira Gran Via.
Barcelona’s Sónar Festival has announced its first 30 acts for June 17–19, 2027, naming Carl Cox, Bonobo, Jessie Ware, Peggy Gou and Tokischa among the performers. The festival also plans to split its daytime and nighttime programs between separate venues again, with the site for Sónar by Day yet to be disclosed.
The initial lineup includes more than a dozen electronic music and live-performance acts, among them Yung Lean, Cornelius, Romy of The xx, Honey Dijon, KI/KI, Oscar Mulero and Goldie. Goldie is listed for a live performance after an injury led him to cancel his 2026 appearance, according to the announcement reported by Consequence.
Cox is set to make his first Sónar appearance in more than two decades. Bonobo will bring a new live show featuring material from Distance in Static, the report says. Other bookings include a back-to-back set from Ed Banger founder Busy P and Mexican singer Girl Ultra, and Collabs3000, the joint project of Chris Liebing and Speedy J.
The remaining names in the first 30 include Adriana Lopez presenting Suut, Aurora Halal, Disobey Sound System, Donato Dozzy and Batu, Drizzyclare, Ehua and Flore, Frost Children, Funk Assault, Job Jobse, Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Kristina Opal Sunn, SALOME, Tash LC, TK MAMI and Yu Su. Organizers say the program will include more than 80 performances and activities across the festival.
A Split-Site Festival Returns
The venue plan marks a change from Sónar’s 2026 format, when daytime and nighttime programming were brought together at Fira Gran Via. In 2027, the day program will move to a central Barcelona waterfront location, while the night program is scheduled to return to Fira Gran Via on June 18 and 19.
The split affects how attendees plan each festival day, including travel between sites and access to the event’s music and conference programming. Sónar by Day will reunite with Sónar+D, the festival’s program focused on music, technology and creativity. The announcement gives prospective visitors a clearer picture of the format, but not yet the daytime location or full schedule.

From 2026 Format to 2027 Plans
Sónar’s 2027 announcement follows a year in which it combined day and night programming at Fira Gran Via. The festival is now returning to separate venues, though the daytime site will be different from any location specified in the material released so far: organizers have described it only as a waterfront location in central Barcelona.
The announcement came after an unusual 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 first lineup release is an initial selection rather than a complete program: the festival says the event will include more than 80 performances and activities.
Daytime Venue Still Unnamed
Organizers have not yet announced the Sónar by Day venue or provided a detailed timetable. The source report also does not specify the complete lineup, the full list of activities, or the exact contents of Bonobo’s new live show beyond its inclusion of material from Distance in Static.
The announcement lists Goldie for a live set after his 2026 cancellation, but does not give further information about his recovery. More acts and event details may be announced later; the available report does not give a schedule for those updates.
Tickets and Further Lineup Details
Tickets are on sale now, according to the report. Available options include SonarPass and SonarPass+ D packages, each offered in standard and VIP versions.
The next major information attendees need is the daytime venue, followed by the program schedule and any additions to the lineup. For now, the confirmed dates are June 17–19, 2027, with Sónar by Night set for June 18 and 19 at Fira Gran Via.
