10 years on, Sónar Kids is back. Designed so that families can enjoy music and creativity together, it takes place on Saturday 20th June from 11:00 to 20:00 in Parc del Forùm, specifically in Petit Amfiteatre.
Sónar Kids includes three different areas located next to each other: SonarXS, which features 10 different musical performances; SonarDôme, where you’ll find interactive workshops; and Zona de Jocs, a free-play zone for children and their families.
Sharing the festival’s commitment to exploration and innovation, Sónar Kids invites both artists and the public to take part in a shared experience that reimagines the idea of family entertainment. The programme is designed to awaken and stimulate the creativity of the youngest members of the family: as well as their first musical performances and creative experiences, they’ll be encouraged to learn, experiment with sound and enjoy art in entirely new ways.
