Open call
First Pulse
The first signal of the Pulse.
Why we're doing this
Every artist on our poster played to an empty room once. Somebody gave them a stage anyway. Sonic Pulse runs on the underground, and undergrounds only survive when the next wave gets a way in — so we're holding the door open ourselves. The call is open worldwide: if you can get to Dhaka on 25 September, you can play.
Two artists from this open call will open Sonic Pulse 2026: a three-hour window, the main rig, eight hundred people arriving curious. Same stage as the headliners, same poster treatment, same sky.
