Ultra Music Festival has added more than 80 genre-bending acts to its already impressive lineup, ahead of the event’s return to Bayfront Park from March 25 – 27, 2022.

In October, Ultra announced phase one headliners David Guetta, DJ Snake, Carl Cox, Alesso, Nina Kraviz, Alison Wonderland, Martin Garrix, Kygo, Amelie Lens, Pendulum (live), Illenium, Madeon (live), Oliver Heldens, Timmy Trumpet, and Knife Party, as well as a highly-anticipated performance by one of the most iconic artists in electronic music history as Sunday’s closing act.

Now, Ultra unveils the next round of iconic artists headed to Bayfront Park: Phase 2 headliners include techno purveyor Adam Beyer, fan-favorite Afrojack, festival veteran Armin van Buuren, a thunderous collaborative performance from Jauz b2b NGHTMRE, storied techno icon Joseph Capriati, British underground legends Sasha / John Digweed, Ophelia label boss Seven Lions, chart-shredder Tiësto, and the worldwide debut of house music aficionados Vintage Culture b2b Claptone. 

Trance lovers can catch the one and only Armin van Buuren at Ultra while his A State of Trance (ASOT) brand celebrates the 10th anniversary of hosting its own Ultra Music Festival stage.

Ultra will continue its endless commitment to touching all corners of the dance floor by hosting its first-ever hardstyle stage, curated by Belgian hardstyle, jumpstyle and happy hardcore record label Dirty Workz. Label boss Coone will front his first-ever Ultra stage with his own performance, as well as curate a roster of heavy-weight acts including hardstyle superstars Da Tweekaz, hard trance purveyor Ben Nicky pres. Xtreme, happy hardcore pioneer Darren Styles, UK hardcore icon Gammer, uptempo hardcore cowboy Lil Texas, hardstyle wunderkinds Sub Zero Project, hard dance thunder from down under Audiofreq, and American hardstyle staples Darksiderz and Pulsatorz.

Nearly half of the phase two lineup is composed of first-ever festival performances, including acts like Kannibalen label heads Black Tiger Sex Machine, magnetic singer-songwriter-producer Elohim (live), a double-trouble set from Mija b2b GG Magree, dubstep rockstar Sullivan King (live), and more.

Phase two also boasts a speaker-rattling lineup of today’s hottest bass music acts, including a live set by multi-instrumentalist Ookay (live), heavy-bass maven WHIPPED CREAM, wobble wizard PEEKABOO, and the fast-rising Nitepunk.

Ultra will also welcome stadium-smashing stars such as radio sensation Cedric Gervais, Juno Award nominee Frank Walker, former Dash Berlin frontman Jeffrey Sutorius, platinum-selling artist Sam Feldt, DOORN RECORDS founder Sander van Doorn, and psytrance icons Vini Vici.

Phase two is rounded out with a hearty helping of bass house from purveyors such as Confession label boss Tchami and Divided Souls imprint ringleader Wax Motif.
