Ultra 2026 Brings the Heat with B2B Sets
The music festival landscape has been interesting over the last few years because lineups have generally been quite good across all major festivals. So the issue becomes how to stand out in a crowd of festivals that are all solid. Ultra Music Festival has consistently focused on this, each year presenting a lineup that features worldwide exclusives or debuts. This year, particularly, Ultra is bringing the heat with solid B2B sets that are a refreshing change from seeing many of the same artists over again.
Ultra famously launched its 2025 lineup with the announcement of Anyma b2b Solomun as a headlining act, and that act went on to be one of the biggest of the season. That same mentality gets turned up a notch in 2026, with big-name b2bs across many stages. Of course, Resistance features some of the most exciting B2B sets of 2026. After seeing Adam Beyer go b2b with Cirez D in 2023, for 2026 he will hit the decks with Italian maestro Joseph Capriati for the first time in the US. The one everybody is talking about is hard techno priestess Sara Landry going b2b with Amelie Lens as a world debut. We’re sure this one will pack a punch! On the melodic side, Argy b2b Mind Against (world debut), Colyn b2b Innellea, and Joris Voorn b2b Korolova are sure to please the crowds. On the house music side, you’ve got Dennis Cruz b2b Seth Troxler, both names you probably haven’t seen at Ultra in quite some time, if at all. Lastly, you have the crowd favorite Sasha_John Digweed rounding out the progressive side. So Ultra has showstopper b2bs covering peak techno, hard techno, melodic techno, progressive, and house music, and that’s just at Resistance!
On the mainstage, everybody is talking about the long-awaited Alesso B2B Martin Garrix set, especially after seeing them at Tomorrowland in 2024 and at Red Rocks recently. The good vibes will be everywhere! While Ultra has hosted SHM and even Axwell Ingrosso, this is the first time the festival will host Sebastian Ingrosso b2b Steve Angello, and this one is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. For those craving harder sounds there’s DJ Snake’s Outlaw b2b TRYM and Clara Cuve b2b Shlomo, which are both going to be firestorms of pulsating energy. There’s also Ray Volpe b2b Sullivan King and WANKDAT. The D&B community is getting a huge b2b in the form of WORSHIP, which is Sub Focus, Dimension, Culture Shock, and 1991. So basically, you get all of the hottest names in the subgenre all in one performance. Another world debut b2b is TIM3LESS, made up of Deorro, Mike Posner, and Morten. That one should be a very interesting combination of sounds and vocals that we can’t wait to see.
Ultra has staked its reputation on world-class lineups every year, and this year is no different. With all of these world-class B2Bs, Ultra is providing you so many experiences you just can’t get anywhere else. You can read the full phase 2 and Resistance lineups to see all the other amazing sets that await us in March. See U there!
