Ultra Music Festival has officially revealed its Phase 2 lineup for Ultra 2026, delivering another jaw-dropping wave of global talent and historic back-to-back performances. The world-renowned festival will return to Bayfront Park in Downtown Miami from Friday, March 27 through Sunday, March 29, 2026, promising an unforgettable weekend of groundbreaking electronic music experiences.

At the top of this year’s announcement is a rare back-to-back headlining set from Alesso b2b Martin Garrix, a once-in-a-lifetime collaboration between two of dance music’s biggest icons. Their joint performance follows a massive year for the duo, highlighted by their highly anticipated single “Inside Our Hearts” featuring Shaun Farrugia, and Martin Garrix’s surprise guest appearance during Alesso’s set at Ultra Europe.

Phase 2 brings even more exclusive back-to-back debuts, including the world debut headlining sets from Argy b2b Mind Against and Ray Volpe b2b Sullivan King, as well as the U.S. debuts of DJ Snake’s alias Outlaw b2b TYRM and Joris Voorn b2b Korolova. Fans can also look forward to the U.S. debut of progressive house supergroup HALŌ, featuring Matisse & Sadko, DubVision, and Third Party.

Additional headliners joining the 2026 lineup include Afrojack, Alan Walker, ARTBAT, and VOYD (the darker alias of SVDDEN DEATH). These powerhouse acts join the already stacked Phase 1 roster, which introduced exclusive performances such as Amelie Lens b2b Sara Landry, Sebastian Ingrosso b2b Steve Angello, and the U.S. debut of Adam Beyer b2b Joseph Capriati, along with mainstage titans John Summit, DJ Snake, Major Lazer, Hardwell, Armin van Buuren, and Vintage Culture.

Ultra’s Phase 2 lineup also unveils an array of world and U.S. debuts, including Clara Cuvé b2b Shlømo, and features over 70 additional acts, bringing the total number of 2026 Ultra debut performances to an impressive 46. This milestone reinforces the festival’s dedication to fresh, cutting-edge curation, with nearly 80% of the lineup being new to Ultra Miami.

Among the newly announced support acts are global standouts such as Colyn b2b Innellea, Cassian, Confidence Man, Miss Bashful, Lilly Palmer, HOL!, X Club, Hamdi, LAYZ, and Rivo, representing a wide spectrum of electronic subgenres from melodic techno to hard dance and experimental bass.
