The Sónar+D Community Takeovers are so much more than a networking session. Each session is a full  takeover of a part of the Sónar+D programme, led by a leading actor in their community, who’ll turn the space into a live hub for encounters, conversations, and meaningful connections. Over the course of 90 minutes, each community shares projects, ideas, and voices that reflect their unique DNA. 

Attendees will get the chance to meet the people behind the projects and make connections that can truly make a difference. Show up, ask questions, connect—because the conversations that start here might just take you further than you ever imagined. 

We’re giving the mic – and the stage – to Communities take the mic. At Lounge+D, creative, tech, and cultural collectives will step in to own the space, presenting projects, sharing visions, and sparking real connections. They turn this corner of Sónar+D into a living, breathing space where ideas flow and conversations get real. This is where the creative scene comes alive — raw, real, and in the now.
