Ultra Music Festival has unveiled the phase one lineup for the 25th anniversary edition of Ultra Miami.
The global festival brand’s flagship event will return to its longtime home at downtown Miami’s Bayfront Park from March 28-30, 2025, where Ultra will celebrate a quarter-century in the business with another huge run of performances from global dance music’s best artists.
Last week, organizers confirmed that Ultra Miami will host a world-exclusive debut B2B from house and techno visionaries Anyma and Solomun in 2025, and today’s headliner reveal is packed with even more exclusive performances and historic firsts.
Solomun will also play solo as part of a takeover of Ultra’s famous RESISTANCE megastructure stage by the artist’s influential Diynamic Music label. He’ll be joined during the takeover by British experimental electronica pioneer Four Tet and Dutch tech house superstar Mau P, both making their festival debuts.
Further first-time Ultra Miami performances will come from Dom Dolla and John Summit’s joint Everything Always alias, experimental bass favorites LSDREAM and CloZee’s collaborative LSZEE project, and the first-ever official B2B from electronic icons deadmau5 and Pendulum.
In addition to the B2B DJ set debut, deadmau5 will bring his throwback-laden “retro5pective” show to Ultra Miami for the first time ever, while Pendulum will play live at the festival for the first time since 2022. Equally revolutionary acts Gesaffelstein and NERO are also slated for anticipated return performances at Ultra Miami as their respective comebacks continue.
Naturally, longtime Ultra player and techno icon Carl Cox will be on hand for the festival’s 25-year celebration, debuting a brand new live show on Ultra’s techno-focused RESISTANCE stage and hosting a stage takeover under his globe-trotting “Carl Cox Invites” brand.
Fellow techno trailblazer Richie Hawtin will present an edition of his new “DEX EFX XOX” live show, alongside further genre highlights like hard techno acts 999999999 and I Hate Models, acid techno queen Charlotte de Witte, Drumcode boss Adam Beyer, and more.
Bass heads can get excited for a new audiovisual show from Zeds Dead, the U.S. debut of Chase & Status‘ new live show, and a high-powered B2B from NGHTMRE and Sullivan King, while main stage lovers will be pleased to see returning favorites like Above & Beyond, Alesso, Axwell, Zedd, Martin Garrix, and Armin van Buuren, who will also host a stage with his famous A State Of Trance radio outfit.
