Destination ULTRA,more than a music festival, is a unique concept that unites the crystal clear waves of the Adriatic sea, the magical Croatian islands of Brač, Hvar and Vis and the rhythms that have been enchanting ‘Ultranauts’ for ten years. Now the lineups for this year’s edition have been revealed.
The Regatta party marks the beginning of the Destination ULTRA adventure. This first stop is right by the beautiful beach, Zlatni rat, in renowned open air Club 585. Famous Dutch duo Lucas & Steve, known for their hits Summer On You, Up Till Dawn (On The Move) and Perfect, will headline after warm up sets from Cats on Bricks, Vanillaz and Dadoo.
The second day is reserved for the famous all-day Hvar party adventure. With summer sun warming the clear Adriatic sea around Pakleni islands the stage is set for a luxurious backdrop for the traditional ULTRA Beach event on July 16. In the last 9 years, this daytime party has established itself as an essential stop for all beach party lovers, and this year a spectacular DJ line-up is expected. Tchami, often described as a pioneer in the subgenre of future house music, will captivate the audience and besides him, Sam Feldt, a musical virtuoso from the Netherlands. Jonas Blue, Goldfish and CUEBRIK will also play on the sunniest island.
After sunset, a new musical journey begins. The venue is the same, but the experience is completely different. The RESISTANCE Hvar program this year features Briton Massan, while the night will be spiced up by a Polish born, London based Kasia, whose sounds can be described as something between house, dub and techno, with a healthy dose of deep groove and funk thrown into her interesting mix.
Destination ULTRA ends on Vis, with the RESISTANCE VIS program scheduled for July 17, in one of the most exclusive places on the Mediterranean, Fort George. It is a boutique event, reserved for 2,000 visitors, and this year another DJ and producer from Kiev, Korolova, oversees the music. Her rapid rise speaks of great talent and a bright future. Last year alone, she performed over 100 shows in 20 countries, wowing audiences in person and online with over 100 million views on YouTube and racking up a whopping 80 million streams.
The tenth edition of the festival starts in Split’s Mladeži Park from July 12 to 14. Armin van Buuren, Adam Beyer, Axwell, Afrojack, Alison Wonderland, Boris Brejcha, Black Tiger Sex Machine, Camelphat, Deborah De Luca, DJ Snake, Eric Prydz, Frankie Wah, Hardwell, Kasablanca, Kasia, Kapuchon, KSHMR, Martin Garrix, Maddix, Massano, Matroda, Mykris, Timmy Trumpet, Sebastian Ingrosso, Slander, Subtronics, Topic, Vintage Culture, Vini Vici and W&W are confirmed performers.
For all those who want the ultimate experience and bit of luxury, this unique perfect seven-day fusion of music, sea and extravagance comes via a Destination ULTRA yacht cruise. It is an ultimate high life experience that combines the best of both worlds – the beautiful landscapes of Croatia and the famous rhythms of the festival. It includes accommodation in a double cabin, with breakfast and lunch, and VIP tickets to all official parties of the tenth edition of the ULTRA Europe festival.
