Air will pay tribute to their iconic debut album ‘Moon Safari’ at Sónar 2024. 25 years after its release, Air play ‘Moon Safari’, represents the first time ever that the record will be played live in its entirety. On Friday 14th June, SonarClub, the main stage at Sónar by Night, will be the venue for this very special performance.

‘Moon Safari’ (1998), now considered a cult classic, is a perfect record from the golden era of French electronic music, a masterful fusion of downtempo with the rich heritage of chanson française. Its release catapulted Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel to fame, with tracks like ‘Sexy Boy’, ‘All I Need’, and ‘La Femme d’Argent’ lodging themselves in the public subconscious during the late 90s. 

The band’s appearance at Sónar 2024 sees the return of Air to the festival, following a previous live set in 2010. They’ll join over 100 other performances and activities at Sónar 2024, including already announced acts like Jessie Ware, Kaytranada, Ben Böhmer live, Vince Staples, Folamour, The Martinez Brothers, Kerri Chandler, Charlotte de Witte presents ‘Overdrive’, Floating Points, and Olof Dreijer. 

The festival’s lineup will be finalised in the coming weeks. Tickets for Sónar 2024 are now available here.
