With the paint all but dry on its huge Phase One lineup announcement at the end of October, ULTRA South Africa™ now confirms the full list of artists set to perform across its two-day, two-city extravaganza in February 2016.
First up, and accompanying OWSLA boss Skrillex and Billboard chart topper Zedd on headline duties across both events, will be two of the biggest names in dance music and long time Ultra stalwarts, Tiësto and Afrojack!
The man behind mega hits including Red Lights and Wasted, Tiësto will be making his return to ULTRA South Africa™. Fellow countryman, Afrojack, will also be returning to Africa’s biggest electronic music event, following a pair of historic performances back in February 2014 and has already rocked ULTRA crowds in Argentina, Croatia, Japan and Miami in 2015.
Support will come from EDM heavyweight and ‘King of the Chipotle Gang’ Carnage (fresh off the back of his debut studio album Papi Gordo), established LA based-producer Mr. Carmack, who will be making his first ever ULTRA appearance, and local heroes Goldfish and TiMO ODV. In addition, 5FM residents and local heroes, Fresh and Euphonik, will be showcasing their talents across both cities on the Main Stage.
Capetonians will have two stages on-site at ULTRA South Africa™, with the Main Stage complemented by a one-off stage hosted by Strange Loving on day one before evolving into the RESISTANCE® Stage for the final day. Strange Loving’s reputation has grown immeasurably over the last few years, having thrown some of the most exciting parties South Africa has ever seen, with the likes of David August, Soul Clap and Marek Hemmann amongst those to have come down to South Africa to perform.
Early Bird tickets for both events sold out within hours of going on sale earlier this year, so fans will have to be quick to guarantee their spot this coming February. For those that want to experience the action firsthand, Advance, Regular, VIP and VVIP admission tickets are now on sale, with all the necessary information below.
Brand new for ULTRA South Africa™ in 2016, the Cape Town edition will be offering its fans the chance to camp at the picturesque West Coast Ostrich Ranch across the two days. For more information and to book online, head to www.heartbreakmotel.co.za
