Ultra Miami 2026 Just Changed the Game with Phase 1 Lineup
Ultra Music Festival is back with a vengeance for its 26th edition — and the Phase 1 lineup is pure chaos (in the best way possible). Nearly 80% of the artists are new compared to 2025, making this one of the most ambitious lineups the festival’s ever pulled off.

Leading the shock factor: the first-ever, world-exclusive Amelie Lens B2B Sara Landry performance. Yes, you read that right. Add in the U.S. debut of Adam Beyer B2B Joseph Capriati and an Ultra-exclusive Sebastian Ingrosso B2B Steve Angello, and it’s clear Ultra’s pulling no punches for 2026.
Mainstage powerhouses like John Summit, DJ Snake, Major Lazer, Hardwell, Armin van Buuren, and Vintage Culture return, while techno heavyweights Carl Cox, Eric Prydz, Miss Monique, Boris Brejcha, Eli Brown, Sasha_John Digweed, and Adriatique keep the underground thriving.
The lineup also dives deep into first-time festival sets — BZRP, ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U, Marlon Hoffstadt, WANKDAT (Wooli & Crankdat), and the world debut of TIMELESS, a new project from Deorro, Mike Posner & MORTEN.
On the live side, expect debut performances from Black Tiger Sex Machine presents Connected Fighters, Levity presents Lasership, Of The Trees, Brutalismus 3000, and Snow Strippers, with returning icons ZHU, Madeon, Boys Noize, and Louis The Child rounding out the bill.
Sara Landry will also lead the first-ever HEKATE stage takeover, joined by new showcases from The Martinez Brothers’ Cuttin’ Headz and Berlin’s Live From Earth. Add in milestone moments for A State of Trance (25 years), Dirty Workz (20 years), and Steve Aoki’s ‘30 Years of Dim Mak’, and Ultra 2026 feels more like a dance music cultural summit than just a festival.
Following a sold-out 25th-anniversary edition that drew 165,000 fans and 30 million #ULTRALIVE views, Ultra returns to Bayfront Park (March 27–29, 2026) ready to raise the bar once again.
