Having built a reputation for producing some of the most electrifying lineups in the festival scene, ULTRA Worldwide has pulled out all the stops for the debut edition of Road to ULTRA Hong Kong, as they reveal their full list of EIGHT international superstars set to grace the event on September 17, 2016.

Knife Party, Martin Garrix and NERO (Live) will become the first ever electronic music headline acts to perform at the brand new Nursery Park at West Kowloon Cultural District, with Carnage, Galantis, Jauz, Marshmello and Thomas Jack all joining the lineup for what is set to be a truly special day and night in the heart of Hong Kong.

Complete with cutting-edge stage production and world-class visuals, these eight heavyweight acts will all play on ULTRA’s vaunted Main Stage, as they prepare to rock 8,000 fans to their core.

Selected due to its numerous similarities to Bayfront Park – the home of Ultra Music Festival, Miami – fans could not ask for a better location for the debut of Road to ULTRA Hong Kong, and they will in fact be some of the first to experience the park upon its completion in a few months time.

With Early Bird Tickets having already sold out without even as much as a lineup announcement, Advance Tickets, now on sale for HKD 900, and VIP tickets, priced at HKD 1,980, are bound to be in high demand. Get yours here before they sell out.

Road to ULTRA Hong Kong will run concurrently with ULTRA Japan (September 17-19) and Road to ULTRA Philippines (September 17), and will mark the eighth event on the continent of Asia for ULTRA in 2016, following events in South Korea, Thailand, Singapore, Taiwan and Bali.

About ULTRA WORLDWIDE™

ULTRA WORLDWIDE™ is the global edition of the World’s Premier Electronic Music event, ULTRA MUSIC FESTIVAL.   

The ULTRA brand was founded in 1997 by Executive Producer, President & CEO Russell Faibisch, and began producing electronic music events in South Florida, which led to the inaugural Ultra Music Festival in 1999 on the sands of Miami Beach.   

The internationally renowned festival, which has taken place every March since its inception, celebrated its eighteenth anniversary from March 18-20, 2016 by bringing over 165,000 music enthusiasts to the sold out waterfront event in the heart of the City of Miami. Ultra Music Festival returns to Bayfront Park for its nineteenth annual edition, 24-26 March 2017.   

Choosing to follow a unique, creative vision and a wholly organic growth focused around a true love for music, artists and fans alike, the ULTRA and ULTRA Worldwide™ brands represent not only the world’s biggest and most successful remaining INDEPENDENT electronic music festival brand, they are now the most international of any festival brand in the world by far. The event organizers continue to transport the unrivalled experience from the Miami flagship festival to an ever-growing number of destinations and fans all over the globe.  

Over the past eighteen years, literally thousands of the world’s most iconic DJs, producers and live acts have mesmerized audiences with awe-inspiring sets at ULTRA festivals in ARGENTINA, BALI, BRAZIL, CHILE, CROATIA, IBIZA, JAPAN, KOREA, SOUTH AFRICA and of course MIAMI, as well as ROAD TO ULTRA® events in BOLIVIA, CHILE, COLOMBIA, MACAU, PARAGUAY, PERU, THE PHILIPPINES, PUERTO RICO, SEOUL, SINGAPORE, TAIWAN, THAILAND, TOKYO and the USA. Each and every new global edition is founded on the same successful recipe that has been perfected over eighteen years in Miami, combining the most diverse electronic talent with the most technologically advanced, large-scale festival productions in the world.

In addition, the ULTRA brands pioneered the live stream experience, ‘ULTRA LIVE’ (whereby the festival is brought online to over 20 million unique viewers globally) and the audio broadcasting platform ‘UMF RADIO’ (syndicated to FM Radio in over 62 countries and reaching more than 22 million listeners weekly). Also UMF FILMS’ collaboration with FINAL KID has seen some of the most visually breathtaking festival aftermovies in the music space, including a feature-length documentary exploring the explosion of dance music, entitled CAN U FEEL IT, which premiered at the Ultra Music Festival, Miami 2012 and was exhibited in over 500 theaters across the Unites States.   

2016 will see the ULTRA and ULTRA WORLDWIDE™ brands continue to push the boundaries even further, bringing an unparalleled combination of cutting edge productions and the world’s best electronic acts back to previous strongholds and new frontiers across the globe. With a brand new edition of ULTRA Brasil confirmed to take place in Rio de Janeiro on 14-15 October 2016, ULTRA Singapore becoming a full scale two-day festival on 10-11 September and with ROAD TO ULTRA® entering Hong Kong later this year, the ULTRA brand has now united TWENTY COUNTRIES across FIVE CONTINENTS worldwide.
