Check-in & accessing the festivalAll the information you need to get your wristband and enter the festival.

GET YOUR WRISTBAND

 

Before entering the festival, you’ll need to stop by a check-in point to exchange your ticket for your wristband.

 

Even if you only have a Sónar by Night ticket, you can check in at Fira Montjuïc (Sónar by Day), to ensure quicker entry to Sónar by Night.

 

Your wristband includes your tickets and will also be your only method of payment throughout the festival, thanks to the SonarCashless system. You can top it up as many times as you like, both before and during the festival.

 

Important: Wristbands will not be issued to third parties. Only you can exchange your ticket(s) for your wristband. Please remember to keep your wristband visible at all times.

MINORS AT SÓNAR

 

Minors aged 16 or 17 may attend both Sónar by Day and Sónar by Night. However, consumption of alcohol and tobacco is strictly forbidden, and failure to comply may lead to their expulsion from the festival. We reserve the right to request photo ID (ID card, passport or similar) at the entrance or once inside the venue.

 

Minors aged 15 or under may attend Sónar by Day but must be accompanied by their legal guardians or another adult with proper authorisation. You’ll need to fill out two copies of the authorisation letter—one must be handed in at check-in and the other kept throughout the festival. We may request to view this letter at any time.

 

ACCESS FOR PEOPLE WITH REDUCED MOBILITY

 

At Sónar, we are committed to accessibility and inclusivity. We work every year to improve access for everyone attending the festival. We’ve developed an accessibility plan based on a diagnostic report that helps guide our actions and improvements each year. You can find more info here.
