DESTINATION ULTRA ANNOUNCE BUMPER LINEUP FOR CROATIA ISLAND EVENT SERIES - TCHAMI, SAM FELDT, KOROLOVA + MORE ALL SET TO PLAY

Embark on a unique musical journey through the Croatian islands with over a dozen world class performers.

Destination ULTRA is much more than a music festival. It 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 all over the world for ten years. With its world-famous DJs, breathtaking settings and unrivalled soundtrack, Destination ULTRA is known as one of the most beautiful musical experiences and now the lineups for this year’s edition have been revealed.

The Regatta party marks the beginning of an unforgettable Destination ULTRA adventure. This first stop is right by the most beautiful beach in the world, 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. Tickets are on sale, available at a price of €39.

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. The GA ticket price is €60, and the VIP ticket is €150.

After another miraculous 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. The tickets, which are usually sold out quickly, are €39 for GA access, and €99 for VIP.

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, which is reserved for 2,000 visitors, and this year another DJ and producer from Kiev, Korolova, oversees the music. She is the ultimate sensation in the melodic house and techno music realm, and 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. Tickets for this event are €39.

The unique tenth edition of the festival starts in Split's Mladeži Park, which will light up in ULTRA Europe colours 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 who will put a special stamp on the anniversary of the festival with their energy, mosaic of sounds and memorable emotions.
