Martin Garrix, Armin van Buuren, Hardwell and the debut of ANYMA B2B Solomun top Ultra’s Phase 1 — and John Summit’s Experts Only gets its own stage.
Ultra Music Festival has fired the starting gun on festival season. Phase 1 of the 2027 lineup — for March 26–28, 2027 at Bayfront Park in Miami — puts more than 80 artists on the poster, per Ultra’s official Phase 1 announcement, with the top of the bill reading like a roll call of who actually runs electronic music right now.
The headliner row: Martin Garrix, Armin van Buuren, Hardwell, Alesso, Afrojack, Eric Prydz, Charlotte de Witte, Amelie Lens, and — per Ultra’s poster — the worldwide debut of ANYMA B2B Solomun, a back-to-back pairing that did not previously exist and that Ultra clearly intends as the weekend’s signature moment. Around them, Phase 1 stretches from the anthemic (Illenium, Gryffin, Seven Lions) to the underground (Adam Beyer, Nicole Moudaber, the RESISTANCE program) without breaking stride.
The structural news is as notable as the names: per Ultra’s announcement, John Summit’s Experts Only imprint takes over a stage — a label-stage curation slot for the artist currently converting casual listeners into house heads faster than anyone in the business. It is the kind of booking that signals where Ultra believes the center of gravity is moving: from superstar DJs alone toward tastemaker-run rooms inside the big tent.
For fans: per Ultra’s official site, tickets for the 2027 edition are on sale now. Miami in late March means the full Miami Music Week ecosystem — hotels, club bills, boat parties — priced at peak; early buyers take the better of it. Accessibility and entry details live on the official site.
The 247 Take — Phase 1 posters are marketing, but this one is also a map: legacy trance, mainstage EDM, techno’s queens, a once-only B2B debut and a stage handed to the scene’s favorite curator — Ultra 2027 is selling the whole spectrum, not a genre.
