Sonar Festival 2014

Sonar Festival

Held in the brilliant city of Barcelona, Sonar festival was founded in 1994 as the ‘festival of Advanced Music and New Media Art’ by a music journalist and two musicians and visual artists. This should indicate what kind of event they’ve been putting on and perfecting over the years: innovation, community and global communication stand at the forefront. The three-day festival attracts a multitude of different artists- all of who come to the site wanting to present their own vision. What has remained intact is the festival’s founding values: the link between creativity and technology, pushing Sonar forward as a pioneer in its field. Since its inception, the festival has been split into two parts: Sonar By Day and Sonar by Night, both of which have seen different locations within Barcelona. In keeping with its urban festival reputation, the event has moved around the city to make the most out of its infrastructure whilst exploring new capacities.
