The festival is actually held in different places in Barcelona: one place for the day (Sonar by Day) in the city center and one for the evening (Sonar by Night), which is a bit further out of town. Sónar festival Barcelona is growing more and more and is nowadays more popular than ever before. Thousands of music lovers from all over Europe attend the festival every year. With the diverse lineup, this is a fun festival with something for everyone.
