ULTRA MUSIC FESTIVAL (UMF)--the nation’s premiere electronic music extravaganza set for Friday, March 28 and Saturday, March 29 at Bicentennial Park in Miami, FL--has announced the initial confirmed stage-by-stage talent line-up for its 10-year anniversary edition. The event runs in conjunction with the Winter Music Conference (WMC) and features over 150 of the world’s top electronic and DJ artists spread out over seven different areas each day.
Festival highlights include the return of Underworld for their only 2008 Florida performance, fan favorite and three time winner of the prestigious DJ Magazine “Top 100 DJ Poll” Tiësto and Paul van Dyk, with a very rare live set with a full band and several guest vocalists from his current release In Between (Mute) including Jessica Sutta of the Pussycat Dolls, Ashley Tomberlin and Rea Garvey, among others. Additional WMC exclusive performances are planned from France’s premier DJ duo Justice as their first-time UMF show and MOBY in support of Last Night, his new album dropping around the time of the festival.
Carl Cox, the only artist confirmed for both dates, will make his exclusive annual Florida appearance with his ‘10 Year Classics’ set on the first night and regular set the second night. UMF is also the only place fans will be able to experience live performances and DJ sets during WMC by BT, Digitalism, Rabbit In The Moon, Deadmau5, Second Sun and Enur, who’s WMC exclusive performance will be their U.S. debut.

From its humble beginnings on the beaches of Miami in 1999, the ULTRA MUSIC FESTIVAL--founded by Russell Faibisch and Alex Omes--has grown to extraordinary proportions. It has branched out to produce ULTRA and UMF-branded events in Miami, the Caribbean, Ibiza and Brazil. ULTRA-branded events have sold out venues such as Miami’s Bayfront Park and American Airlines Arena as well as New York City’s Central Park Rumsey Field. In 2004, UMF created music history by becoming the first festival ever to be aired in HD on Pay-Per-View to more than 55 million homes for 45 days. In 2006 UMF 8 ranked #7 among international festivals in the Top 10 Festivals Chart according to Billboard (December 23, 2006).
The ULTRA MUSIC FESTIVAL was also the recipient of the IDMA Award for ‘Best International Dance Event’ in 2005 and 2006. In 2007, UMF expanded to two days with headliners The Cure, Tiësto, Paul van Dyk and Fatboy Slim. UMF is the leader in global dance music events and presents the best line-up year after year.
Tickets are available now through www.ultramusicfestival.com.
