Line-ups, updates and news for Sonar 2010.

When: 17 - 19 June 2010
Where: Barcelona, Spain
How Much: 165 €
Sonar By Day: 39 €
Sonar By Night: 60 €

Focusing on adventurous electronic acts, Barcelona’s Sónar festival has the advantage of guaranteed sunshine and a continental attitude: no fear of pretension has so far prevented the programming of leftfield experimentation alongside upfront pop and techno. Various advice will suggest forgetting the days in favour of time in bed, or seeking out fringe parties instead of the main, out-of-town shows at night. The canny Sonar-goer however, aims for a mix of mildly cerebral afternoons in the sun, giant-scale warehouse raving and casual enjoyment of one of the best city destinations in Europe.

This year, headliners include The Chemical Brothers, Roxy Music, Air, LCD Soundsystem, Plastikman, Dizzee Rascal, 2ManyDJs, Booka Shade, Hot Chip and so many more I'm actually salivating. Book your accomodation early, the city swells hugely during Sonar weekend.
