Ultra Europe: 6 more acts added!
6 of the world’s finest dance music acts have been added to the already star studded line up for the first edition of Ultra Europe on the weekend of 12th – 14th July 2013 in the city of Split and on the island of Hvar in Croatia. British bass purveyors Chase & Status, dub-house duo Cazzette and Turkish progressive mainstay Deniz Koyu are all taking to the main stage at the Poljud Stadium in Split over Friday 12th and Saturday 13th July to join the likes of Armin Van Buuren, Avicii, Carl Cox, Afrojack and Hardwell. As well as these dance music juggernauts, Yousef and Adam Beyer will be bringing their house and techno expertise to light up the Carl Cox & Friends Arena over the first two days, before Australian duo Nervo join Steve Aoki for an unbelievable poolside party at the Hotel Amfora Grand Beach Resort in Hvar on Sunday 14th July.
Following the record breaking fifteenth edition of Ultra Music Festival that took place over two weekends in Miami in March, this trend of raising the bar will continue when electronic music lovers from over 75 countries flock to Croatia for Ultra Europe, which is on course to sell out with over 60% of tickets already sold 3 months before the festival even begins!
Those not making the journey to the Dalmatian coast will also now be able to enjoy this amazing event as it’s also been announced that UMF TV will be broadcasting live on all 3 days! Looking to emulate the success of the Ultra XV livestream in Miami – which became the most viewed festival event in North America to date with 10 million unique viewers, as well as gaining the highest concurrent number of views for any non-sponsored music stream – you’ll now be able to live the Ultra Europe experience live from the comfort of your own home!
40,000 fans per day will be able to soak up the sonic delights from the Poljud Stadium, with a further 3000 also watching the region’s biggest ever stage from the luxurious VIP area. The Carl Cox & Friends Arena will play host to 8000 revelers and another 2500 will enjoy music from some of the best up-and-comers from Croatia and the surrounding area on the Regional Stage. As well as this, Ultra Europe has become the first festival in the world to team up with The Yacht Week to bring more than 250 boats as part of the Ultra Europe Regatta to the Hotel Amfora Grand Beach Resort in Hvar on Sunday 14th July, where 5000 fans can drink in the exceptional music and stunning views in and around the hotel’s beautiful pool.

About ULTRA MUSIC FESTIVAL
As the world’s most famous outdoor electronic music festival, ULTRA has won “Best Music Event” by the International Dance Music Awards (IDMA) six consecutive years, from 2005 to 2011, “Best International Dance Music Festival” by the Ibiza DJ Awards in 2008 and “Best Festival” by the Village Voice Media New Times consecutively five years running from 2005 through 2009. Originally created as a pure electronic music festival in 1999, ULTRA has grown through the years to present not only the genre’s hottest, biggest and best headline artists (The Prodigy, Swedish House Mafia, The Chemical Brothers, Tiësto, David Guetta, deadmau5, Underworld, Kraftwerk, Armin van Buuren, Moby, Fatboy Slim, Justice, Carl Cox and Avicii to name a few), but also crossover headline bands that incorporate EDM elements in their music and have a history or new beginning in the EDM community and culture (The Cure, The Killers, New Order, Duran Duran, The Black Eyed Peas, Erasure, M83, Santigold, The Ting Tings, Cut Copy, Empire of the Sun and Bloc Party). In 2012, global pop icon Madonna appeared as a special surprise guest—the festival’s gift to their fans—to introduce the main stage final headlining artist AVICII, joining him behind the decks to premiere his UMF remix of her new single “Girl Gone Wild.” The year also was the subject of CAN U FEEL IT, a major documentary feature about the festival, which was shown in over 500 theatres nation-wide. Together with its signature, cutting-edge productions, ULTRA is unrivalled by consistently presenting the world’s greatest, most diverse EDM line-ups year after year. In 2013, as it celebrated its 15 year anniversary, ULTRA became the first major EDM festival in the world to expand to two weekends: March 15, 16 and 17 and March 22, 23 and 24. Both weekends sold out with a combined total of over 330,000 people in attendance from 95 countries, breaking the festival’s previous record. A global brand, ULTRA MUSIC FESTIVAL takes place in Miami, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Ibiza and Korea, expanding into Europe with ULTRA EUROPE July 2013 in Croatia.
