Sonar Festival
@ barcelona, Spain too long 13th - 15th June
Because the official name is a bit
Every year Barcelona turns into the
capital city of music, hosting more than
80,000 attendees. Since 1994, Sonar
Festival has been responsible of uniting
some of the most relevant singers and
DJs into one exclusive line up. This year
Skrillex, Pet Shop Boys, Diplo and Major
Lazer are the chosen ones to keep you
awake for an electric and unforgettable
weekend. Two Door Cinema Club and
Bat for Lashes will take you to a more
indie-esque atmosphere. This is verified
with reviews from international papers
and magazines including The Guardian
and Le Monde. It is mainly a pioneering
event that is trying to send its culture
throughout the world with 40 concerts
in countries such as Reykjavik and Tokyo.
Officially
called
the
Barcelona
International Festival of Advanced Music
and New Media Art, it is progressively
dealing not only with music but also with
Sonar Pass : £149
2-Night Tickets : £98
Sonar by Night : £56
Sonar by Day : £34
film that will make you feel
like you stepped into a futuristic era.
Sonar is innovative from their showcases
to their music program. It features not only
acclaimed artists but also experimental
and soon-to-be music legends. One of the
highly expected artists this edition is the
father of Harlem Shake, Baauer, the bloke
behind that debut track that transformed
into not only a worldwide hit but also
into a worldwide trend with the epileptic
d a n c e
that
has
been
invading
YouTube
recently. Now imagine a massive Harlem
Shake made in Barcelona! Definitely one
of the many reasons you have to attend
Sonar this year. A SonarPass is 175€.
