At the top of the announcement, two legendary electronic music pioneers who have shaped club culture take center stage. The Chemical Brothers will deliver a high-energy and unforgettable DJ set that has defined dance music for three decades. Meanwhile, Richie Hawtin will bring his back-to-basics live show, DEX EFX X0X, to Istanbul following its critically acclaimed premiere at Sónar Barcelona last year. These two trailblazers are already setting the boundary-pushing tone for Sónar Istanbul 2025.
They’ll be joined by a lineup of international and local stars who boldly push the boundaries of electronic music. Both Marie Davidson and Aïsha Devi with Emmanuel Biard’s breathtaking ‘Les Immortelles’ performance captivated audiences at Sónar Barcelona 2024. This year, prepare for an electrifying live show from rising French duo Jersey, whose energy will ignite the stage. Sónar Istanbul 2025 is set to be a hub of innovation and inspiration in electronic music.
Modeselektor and Kettama b2b Special Request lead the DJ sets, while BASHKKA makes a powerful return to Istanbul’s underground scene. Rising UK star Emerald and genre-defying Japanese DJ ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U will also perform. Two of Istanbul’s most influential underground figures, Evrim de Evrim and Ece Özel, will go back-to-back, while Gaia Ekho debuts a brand-new hybrid performance.
The full artist lineup will be revealed in the coming weeks, but we recommend getting your tickets now. See you on May 9th and 10th at Zorlu PSM!
