Sónar Festival stuns with complete lineup reveal & iconic upgrades for 33rd edition

With uninterrupted music from 5pm to 3am on Thursday 18th June, and from 5pm to 7am on Friday 19th and Saturday 20th June, Sónar 2026 sees significant upgrades to its iconic stages, along with a refined curatorial approach allowing the programme to breathe like never before. From the best of the dance music underground at SonarLab, experimental sounds of yesterday and tomorrow at SonarHall, global bass and latin mutations at SonarPark or the biggest names in popular electronic music at SonarVillage by Estrella Damm and SonarClub, this year’s lineup places the past, present and future of dance music all in one venue.

Sónar has been completely reimagined, from its stages and technical infrastructure to the lighting design and the resources deployed across the entire site. The festival’s long-standing technical team, responsible for producing Sónar at Fira Gran Via, has been working for months alongside cultural architects TWOFIFTYK, a global agency that has transformed the landscape of live entertainment. Together, they are reshaping the festival’s spaces and stages from the ground up, renewing Sónar in full while staying true to its essence and upholding the brand’s highest quality standards.

With its 33rd edition, Sónar sets out to once again place Barcelona at the heart of global creativity – across music, technology and digital art. The most ambitious, diverse and forward-thinking Sónar to date, yet more faithful than ever to its transformative DNA, now reveals its curatorial vision, brought to life across six fully reimagined stages.

In 2026, SonarClub reaffirms its status as the biggest dancefloor in the world, with a lineup of huge acts and DJs designed to maximise an upgraded sound system and lighting rig and improved visual production.

Headlining today’s additions is the long‑awaited Sónar debut of legendary British rave crew The Prodigy, who finally bring their explosive live show to Spain’s biggest dancefloor. They’re joined by Dom Dolla and Sara Landry, two of the most in-demand DJs in contemporary club music, who’ve each prepared AV shows to accompany their high-impact, big room-ready sets.

That’s all in addition to previously announced headliner Skepta and massive AV shows from Charlotte de Witte and Amelie Lens.

Also added today are three DJs who represent different shades of modern techno: Greek hardgroove revivalists ANNĒ & Sera J and versatile Ukrainian artist Daria Kolosova. In recognition of The Prodigy’s influence on the Andalusian breakbeat scene, Sevillan producers R.I.P. Bestia and Ático Corp will perform together as UFC (Un Futuro Creíble) Live, while Manchester-based Basque selector Zuri explores more modern, bass-driven sounds.

Rounding out the lineup are four already- announced DJs: floor-filling specialists DJ Gigola and Funk Tribu, and expert selectors Ogazón and Joy Orbison.

Tickets are available here.
