Ultra Music Festival 2027 unveils blockbuster Phase 1 lineup featuring world debuts, landmark returns and new show concepts

Ultra Music Festival has unveiled its star-studded Phase 1 lineup for its 27th edition, returning to its longtime home of Bayfront Park in Downtown Miami from Friday, March 26 - Sunday, March 28, 2027. Building on the success of its sold-out 2026 edition, which welcomed 165,000 attendees from more than 100 countries and reached 42.5 million around the globe through #ULTRALIVE, Ultra’s first wave of 2027 artists includes more than 25 acclaimed headlining acts spanning global hitmakers, underground innovators and genre-crossing performers.

Reaffirming its legacy as the World’s Premier Electronic Music Festival, Ultra 2027’s Phase 1 lineup combines celebrated artist returns with world-debut collaborations, first-time festival performances and ambitious new show concepts, setting the stage for another weekend of defining dance music moments on Miami’s waterfront.

GRAMMY-winning producer and hitmaker Calvin Harris will make his highly anticipated return to Ultra Miami for the first time since his blockbuster 2024 headlining performance. With a catalog of era-defining dance anthems and celebrated collaborations with Rihanna, Dua Lipa, Sam Smith and Ellie Goulding, Harris will bring his unmistakable sound back to Bayfront Park for an exclusive headlining set.

Continuing Ultra’s tradition of creating electronic music’s rare, “you-had-to-be-there” moments, platinum-selling artist Marshmello and stadium-smashing dubstep producer/DJ Subtronics will join forces for a world-debut B2B performance. Both artists have previously commanded Ultra’s stages individually, and their first back-to-back performance will unite Marshmello’s crossover anthems and melodic sensibility with Subtronics’ intricate sound design and heavy-hitting dubstep. The landmark collaboration adds another history-making performance to Ultra’s legacy of bringing dance music’s most distinctive talents together at Bayfront Park.

In addition to presenting the world’s first Marshmello B2B Subtronics set, Ultra 2027 will also host the U.S. debut of Boris Brejcha B2B Eric Prydz Presents Cirez D. The German masked minimal maestro and Swedish production wonder will unite Brejcha’s signature high-tech minimal sound with the darker techno sound of Prydz’s Cirez D alias, bringing another rare back-to-back pairing to Ultra’s programming.

Ultra’s Phase 1 roster also welcomes back a host of superstar festival staples. Dutch hitmaker Martin Garrix, who made his Ultra Miami debut in 2014 at just 17 years old, will return for another headlining performance. His STMPD RCRDS imprint will also return for its first festival stage takeover since 2022, celebrating the label’s 10th anniversary.

ULTRA Worldwide’s esteemed house and techno brand RESISTANCE will once again bring underground talent to the MegaStructure and The Cove stages.

Mau P will bring his Baddest Behaviour brand to the festival for the very first time, hosting a curated stage takeover at the RESISTANCE MegaStructure. Having made his Ultra Miami debut at the RESISTANCE MegaStructure in 2025 as part of Solomun’s Diynamic takeover, Mau P will return in 2027 with a showcase of his own. Known for its club-focused energy and artist curation, Baddest Behaviour has become a platform for Mau P’s musical identity spanning international events, an Ibiza residency, and now a record label of the same name. Its Ultra debut will bring that dancefloor ethos to one of the festival’s signature stages, anchored by a headlining performance from Mau P himself.

Swedish techno pioneer Adam Beyer will also return to headline the festival, bringing his influential Drumcode imprint to Ultra Miami for its first-ever RESISTANCE stage takeover. An established force in techno through its celebrated releases and international events, Drumcode will introduce its own dedicated showcase to the festival’s underground programming.

Fusing real-time generative industrial visuals with organic elements and immersive lighting, the show explores the relationship between technology and nature while showcasing her melodic house and techno sound and unreleased music from Siona Records.

Alongside Sara Landry’s Divine Intervention and Miss Monique Presents BIORHYTHM, RESISTANCE will welcome back UK house tastemaker Michael Bibi, French industrial techno producer I Hate Models and Spanish techno sensation Indira Paganotto.

Two-time GRAMMY-nominated duo SOFI TUKKER will return to Ultra Miami for the first time since 2022 with the festival debut of their live show, SOFI TUKKER presents Animal Talk. In addition to their own headlining set, the duo will curate an Animal Talk-branded takeover of the Live Stage, marking the first-ever curated takeover of that stage in Ultra Miami history. Born from the duo’s own dance parties and later expanded into a label and artist collective, Animal Talk embodies the joyful, uninhibited spirit at the heart of Sophie Hawley-Weld and Tucker Halpern’s musical partnership. Through their performance and stage curation, the duo will bring that spirit to Bayfront Park in a celebration of electronic music, Brazilian influences and communal connection.

Bass fans will witness Australian producer, DJ and singer Alison Wonderland will team up with Los Angeles-based artist, producer and DJ Tiffany Day for their first-ever back-to-back performance at a festival.
