An abridged festival season was salvaged out of 2021, and now it appears it is already time to start planning for 2022, as Ultra Music Festival announces its long-awaited Bayfront Park homecoming with a stellar first wave of talent. Ultra is pulling out all the stops for the event’s hotly anticipated Bayfront renaissance—the festival’s first return to its famed home venue since 2018. Madeon, DJ Snake, Pendulum, Carl Cox, Sofi Tukker, Boris Brejcha, David Guetta, Oliver Heldens, and Fisher represent a handful of acts announced in Ultra’s initial lineup delivery, including a balanced slate of live performances planned for the weekend.
Often hailed as the beginning of spring festival season, things should feel right at home for the first time in years when a swell of the most in-demand electronic acts in the world take over Miami across March 25 – 27. Alison Wonderland, Tale of Us, Zeds Dead, Camelphat, Oliver Tree, Kygo, and more add additional star power, setting an incredibly high bar for Ultra’s upcoming iteration. Watch the lineup announcement below, and keep an eye on the blurred spot in the video announcement. Alphabetically, the lineup could be alluding to a hiatus-snapping Hardwell appearance, but for now, there’s plenty of room to speculate who else might land on 2022’s talent roster.
