ULTRA Singapore 2016 is

September. 1-day and 2-day

Changi Airport in Singapore
serves more than 100 airlines
flying in from some 330 cities in
about 80 countries around theworld. National carrier
Singapore Airlines is available in
63 international destinations in
35 countries.
Stay at the iconic Marina Bay
Sands Hotel for its famed views
and infinity pool – the hotel also
comes with the added perk of
being mere walking distance
from the event, so you can skip
the exasperating taxi queues
(from US$574 per pax per night;
marinabaysands.com).Following its record-breaking event
in 2015, ULTRA Singapore 2016 is
back with a vengeance – what was
once a one-stage, indoor concert
has exploded into a two-day,
three-stage outdoor extravaganza.
This year, Singapore will also host
an ULTRA LIVE Stage, making it the
third country in the world to do so
after Miami and Korea.
Held along the spectacular
Bayfront Avenue – a splitting image
of Miami’s Bayfront Park location- with glittering views of the
downtown skyline, the upgraded
event boasts Phase One headliners
such as Afrojack, Axwell & Ingrosso,
deadmau5, and Kygo, bolstered by
supporting acts DJ Marshmello and
JAUZ. Other crowd favourites
include Above & Beyond, Alesso,
Far East Movement, and DJ SNAKE.
Drawing further parallels to Miami,
ULTRA Singapore will be receiving
the full treatment, including the
immensely popular RESISTANCE
concept featuring techno, deep
house and the darker side of dance
music.
Considered one of the most
spectacular music festivals in the
world, ULTRA’s legendary Main
Stages have played host to some of
the biggest names in electronic
music history. ULTRA Singapore
marks the start of ULTRA
Worldwide’s second Asia run this
year, with the highly successful
ULTRA Korea festival and sold out
Road To Ultra Thailand event havingalready taken place in June. Part two
will see the brand undertake six
stops in Asia including Singapore,
Taiwan, Japan, Hong Kong, Bali andthe Philippines all within a
two-week span – a festival first and
a feat no other event organiser can
lay claim to.
