Other than transportation issues on the first day of the festival, Ultra Music Festival had a seemingly successful debut at its new Miami Location in Virginia Key. The festival reported that they saw over 170,000 attendees at the festival this year, up 5,000 attendees from 2018. Despite doors being closed less than 72 hours ago, Ultra has already announced its 2020 dates, although they have yet to confirm the location. With that, next year’s iteration of Ultra is set to take place on March 27, 28, and 29, 2020.

Former Miami Police Chief and now Head of Security for the music festival, Ray Martinez commented on the festival’s intention to return to its Virginia Key location next year.

“It was a great event in a beautiful location, and we look forward to being here next year and producing — and even improving on — our event and our festival,” Martinez said.

Ultra’s marketing and new media manager posted on Twitter following the festival, where he pointed out that details surrounding the Virginia Key location were pulled together by the festival organizers with just four months of planning time. With a year to plan, 2020 could be Ultra’s biggest year yet.

pretty tired and will have more complete thoughts on #Ultra2019 later this week so I’ll just say this—

it was an unbelievable festival with only 4 months of planning

with a full year to plan, @ultra Miami in Virginia Key will be life-changing
