Blow open the doors of this museum: Barcelona's Sónar Festival is around the corner! Held June 19-21 this year, the show encompasses concerts from acts as diverse as Matmos, Goldfrapp, M.I.A. and Justice, plus street fairs, film screenings and special events sponsored by the Barcelona Center of Contemporary Culture and the Museum of Contemporary Art.

There's a catch, though: During the fest, Sónar parties in the city by day and some kilometers distant by night in the Fira Barcelona. If you'd rather sightsee during the day, each section is ticketed separately (€30 [$46] for each day, €40-€48 by night), and transportation is included in the night tickets.

Oh, and as you can see in the photo, night events go on into the daylight in true Spanish style.
