SonarKids Festival to be held outside Barcelona for the first time

Barcelona (CNA).- This year the SonarKids Festival created by Sonar for a family public, changes its traditional location from Barcelona to El Port de la Selva, where the gig will take place for the first time on the 26th and 27th May. SonarKids proposes two days of free music in front of the sea and aims to expand and renew the leisure opportunities for children and families. They all will be able to enjoy the music of Catalan musician Miqui Puig, the Pioneer Dj Kids, Barbara i els Morenos, the street dance of Brodas Company, the ska of The Penguins and the ‘beatbox’ of Markooz, among others.

In this fourth edition, the SonarKids changes the city of Barcelona for El Port de la Selva, a Girona village on the Costa Brava, 170 km north of the capital of Catalonia, for the first time in its history. On Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th May, parents and children will be able to dance and have fun with the Festival artists. This time, the youngest public will enjoy the rhythm of the Catalan musician Miqui Puig and the Pioneer Dj Kids, the young students of Rosa Amuedo Dj’s workshop. In addition, the audience will have the chance to feel the music of Barbara i els Morenos. Barbara, Belgian by birth, learned the Catalan language through traditional children tales from Catalonia, and that’s from where her show comes, telling this stories accompanied by the ‘Morenos’: Joan Pons (from El Petit del Cal Eril) and Mau Boada (from Esperit! i les Aus). After last year’s success, the Brodas Company comes back to the SonarKids to show off their choreographies and present Varium Kids, a group of dancers aged between 12 and 16. The popular Catalan songs from all times and styles are raw material of The Penguins, who turn them into reggae and ska Jamaican themes, making them more rhythmic and funny.
