Miami, FL – The beat never stops in Miami, and neither does Ultra. The legendary Ultra Music Festival is back, louder and larger than ever, celebrating its 26th edition with an explosive Phase 1 lineup that proves once again why Ultra remains the world’s premier destination for electronic music. The three-day festival will take over Bayfront Park in Downtown Miami from March 27–29, 2026, promising another unforgettable weekend of music, unity, and pure sonic energy.
After a sold-out 25th-anniversary celebration, Ultra 2026 looks to push boundaries even further, spotlighting 14 first-time performers and a global mix of electronic innovators across every genre. This year’s lineup will feature exclusive sets fans won’t find anywhere else, including the debut Amelie Lens b2b Sara Landry performance, the U.S. debut of Adam Beyer b2b Joseph Capriati, and a rare Sebastian Ingrosso b2b Steve Angello reunion.
Returning to headline Ultra’s iconic stages are heavyweights DJ Snake, Hardwell, Armin van Buuren, Major Lazer, John Summit, Eric Prydz, Vintage Culture, and of course, Carl Cox, whose legendary closing sets have become a Miami ritual. Adding to the excitement are debut performers BZRP, WORSHIP, Marlon Hoffstadt, ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U, WANKDAT (Wooli b2b Crankdat), and TIMELESS (Deorro, Mike Posner & MORTEN).
Ultra’s 2026 edition also promises new creative dimensions with exclusive stage takeovers, including Sara Landry’s HEKATE, The Martinez Brothers’ Cuttin’ Headz, and Germany’s Live From Earth, alongside major milestone celebrations for A State of Trance (25 years), Dirty Workz (20 years), and Dim Mak (30 years). Fans can also expect Ultra’s signature fusion of lights, visuals, and bass with groundbreaking live acts like Black Tiger Sex Machine, Of the Trees, and Brutalismus 3000, alongside powerhouse names in the bass world such as Excision, Illenium, and ISOxo. Together, they form a lineup that perfectly captures the festival’s spirit, evolution through sound, and connection through rhythm.
After conquering stages across the globe, Ultra’s world tour now returns home to Miami, where it all began, ready to raise the bar yet again. Twenty-six years deep, and Ultra is still rewriting the rules of what a music festival can be.
