27/03/2025Boiler Room lands at Sónar by Night with a Nathy Peluso back-to-back, Dengue Dengue Dengue, Six Sex, Lua de Santana and more in SonarCar

It’s finally happening. Boiler Room is coming to Sónar for the very first time this June, with a takeover of SonarCar on both nights at Sónar by night Starting out as a webcam taped to a wall, Boiler Room has helped bring the underground to the wider world, with over 8000 performances streamed, recorded and archived since 2010. Both Sónar and Boiler Room share the same commitment to supporting local scenes and emerging artists, so there’s nowhere better for them than SonarCar, home to the sounds that are reshaping global club culture. We’re extremely excited to have collaborated with them on two separate lineups on Friday 13th and Saturday 14th June.

Live sets from Peruvian duo Dengue Dengue Dengue and emerging Galician-Brazilian star Lua de Santana headline on Friday, together with a Caribbean-influenced set from DJ SOSA RD, deep techno producer Andy Martin, Latin American club culture activist Tiyumii and Deprerreo collective members L’Miranda b2b Candadismo.

The star of Saturday is Nathy Peluso, who after her headline set will pass by SonarCar x Boiler Room for a Club Grasa flavoured back-to-back together with Zsongo Club’s Chris Collins and Afri K. Six Sex brings her signature mix of reggaetón, dancehall and rave music, while rising Spanish producer nusar3000 returns to Sónar with a new live set. Also on the bill is global bass fanatic EYRA, baile funk minimalist Anderson do Paraíso and an up-and-coming star WOST, all making their Sónar debuts. SonarCar x Boiler Room is one of the four stages at Sónar by Night, so any ticket for Sónar by Night (SonarPass, Sónar by Night Pass, or individual tickets for Friday night or Saturday night) will be able to join the party.

25/02/2025Big screen dreams: SonarLab x Printworks returns to Sónar by Night this year with Pa Salieu, Sega Bodega, Cora Novoa, Dixon and more

Last year SonarLab x Printworks revamped one of Sónar by Night’s most iconic stages, bringing a taste of the famed London club to Barcelona. We were so thrilled with the response that this year we’re teaming up with Printworks again to roll it back. Together, we’ve curated two stacked nights of forward-thinking electronic music on a state-of-the-art stage featuring the iconic giant vertical screen and a specially designed lighting rig. You’ll find the best DJs from the global underground, cutting-edge live acts, unique back-to-backs, and special productions designed just for the stage.

On Friday 13th June, catch British-Gambian rapper Pa Salieu’s scintillating live show, who’s set for stardom following the release of his latest album Afrikan Alien, which combines the vocabulary of drill and rap with influences from afrobeat to amapiano. He’s headlining a lineup full of UK-flavoured, high-tempo music that goes from dubstep and speed garage to jungle and drum’n’bass, with British DJs Tim Reaper, Interplanetary Criminal, SICARIA and Hamdi, plus Flore b2b Peder Mannerfelt and local artist NAGUIYAMI.

On Saturday 14th June, Sega Bodega and Galician-Catalan artist Cora Novoa both perform live, while Dixon returns to Sónar 6 years on from his last appearance, an epic sunrise closing set. Completing the lineup is veteran US rave DJ Hiroko Yamamura, talented local artist oma totem and back-to-back sets by unpredictable producer and DJ Skee Mask with enigmatic UK artist Actress and sure-fire selectors Saoirse and Ryan Elliott.

You’ll be able to experience SonarLab x Printworks with any ticket that gives you access to Sónar by Night. Head to our tickets page to grab yours now.
