Here we discuss the future of the cultural and digital industry and the transformations it undergoes today. Here 4500 accredited professionals, 2000 companies, 30 startups and multitudes of people who want to exchange experiences and visions meet. If you travel to Barcelona and the Sonar festival
by train you can take up to three suitcases without paying any extra amount. Take advantage to fill them with new knowledge and ideas in Sonar + D.
Sonar by day and Sonar by Night
In addition to Sonar + D, the Sonar festival is structured in two parts: Sonar by day and Sonar by Night. These are two different ways of living the Sonar, and are composed of different types of activities. Sonar by day is designed to discover new musical talents, see cultural proposals and audiovisual projections. In contrast, Sonar by Night focuses more on music, dance floor and party until dawn. Whatever Sonar you choose to visit, remember that Renfe-SNCF en Coopération trains always take you from city center to city center. This way you spend less time traveling and more time enjoying the festival.
The city of Barcelona is in itself unmissable
