Bayfront Park will be the official home of Ultra Music Festival for the next five years after an agreement was passed by the City of Miami Commission.


The past few years have been quite a roller coaster ride for Ultra Music Festival in Miami as they faced adversity with their longtime home at Bayfront Park and became one of the festivals hit hardest by the global pandemic. But this year saw the festival’s grand return to the scene and their beloved venue, and now there’s even more news for Ultranauts to be excited about with the announcement that an agreement was reached to keep it at Bayfront Park until 2027.

Just after the most recent edition of Ultra Miami came to a close back in March with stunning sets from artists like Hardwell and Zeds Dead, the festival organizers dropped the dates and initial ticket info for the 2023 edition. That wasn’t all that was brewing behind the scenes, though, as they looked to solidify their place at Bayfront Park well into the future. This would require an agreement between the festival and Bayfront Park Management Trust, which needed to be passed by the City of Miami Commission.

Today, that agreement has been voted on and unanimously passed, allowing Ultra Music Festival to make Bayfront Park its home for the next five years and quell any fears that attendees might have in regards to the shakier status at the venue as of late. Next year’s edition is set to make its return on March 24-26, with Swedish House Mafia announced as one of the festival’s headliners.

To celebrate this major news, Ultra Music Festival dropped an aftermovie filled with memories and is putting a limited number of tickets back on sale starting on Tuesday, May 17 at 11am ET. Check out the video on YouTube below and head over to their website for more information and to snag your passes if you plan to attend because the 2023 edition is sure to be one you won’t want to miss!

  • ARTIST INTERVIEW: 🎵⁠
@MitiS shares Memories of his early career and releases a brand new four-track EP on his imprint to thank his longtime fans. 🙌🏽⁠
⁠
“I fell in love with the tempo, and how it was SO different from everything else,” he told us. “It just really clicked, supernaturally. The more I wrote, the more it made me excited to write more of it.” - MitiS ⁠
⁠
He returns with his brand new Memories EP, which not only harkens back to the start of his career but serves as a thank-you to his fans. “I got super burnt out trying to write more poppy-sounding stuff, and the melodic scene is so over-saturated now that I just wanted to write how I felt and what I wanted,” he said. “I had the most fun writing instrumental music my whole career, so I decided to dive back in and have a trip down memory lane.“ 🎶⁠

  • SHOW REVIEW:⁠
Millions of people across the globe recently ushered in a fresh Lunar New Year. For those that celebrate, 2023 is the year of the rabbit, which represents peace, self-reflection, and prosperity. And in honor of this celebration, Pulse Events produced two eventful nights at @avantgardnerbk, featuring a roster of Asian artists and two dance music titans – @Gryffin and @KSHMR. 🪅🎶⁠
⁠
The renowned venue displayed a 360 photo booth with a Lunar New Year backdrop for attendees, and a constellation of red lanterns suspended throughout the space with a huge chandelier right in the center of the Great Hall – and our team was there to witness the Lunar New Year magic. 💫⁠

  • ALBUM REVIEW: 💿️⁠
There are few artists in the melodic house and techno realm more in demand than @marshmusician at the moment. His latest LP to land on @Anjunadeep, Endless, is a glimpse of what the last few years of staying busy have meant to the producer, yet also act as a snapshot of his past as he takes his deepest influences and brings them into the present. This album is the culmination of both the artistry that’s made him a staple of the Anjuna roster over the past few years and the philosophical questions that arise from long journeys. 🛣️🎶⁠
⁠
"I’ve written this entire album on the move, writing from so many different homes. On a deeper, more spiritual level, this has led me to question, what is truly home, and will we experience home after this life?" -Marsh⁠
