The annual dance gathering celebrated its 25-year anniversary this past weekend at Miami's Bayfront Park, drawing tens of thousands of fans.
While a strong wind was blowing through town on Friday (March 28), the weather held for the festival, with day one featuring sets from marquee acts including Charlotte de Witte, Alesso, Armin van Buuren and Dom Dolla and John Summit performing together as Everything Always. On Saturday (March 29) under overcast skies, the festival again delivered a series of heavy-hitting b2bs that included Anyma and Solomun performing together for the first time and deadmau5 (sans his helmet) playing alongside Rob Swire of Pendulum. While Ultra temporarily shut down on Sunday, March 30, due to rain, the festival eventually reopened and unleashed plenty of music, including b2bs by bass stars Alleycvt and Jessica Audifred (our Billboard Dance Rookie of the Month for March), bass titans Flux Pavilion and Doctor P going b2b and other pairings that included a major surprise b2b2b2b, with Solomun inviting Four Tet, Chloe Caillet and Mau P onstage during the last portion of his festival-closing show on Ultra’s massive Megastructure stage and the four artists taking turns on the decks.
