Ultra Music Festival, Ultra Abu Dhabi, and Road To Ultra: India cancelled due to coronavirus

Festival organizers Ultra Enterprises Inc. have been forced to cancel this weekend’s Ultra Abu Dhabi and Road To Ultra: India, and Ultra Music Festival. This will be the first time Ultra Music Festival will have to skip a year. The decision was made to cancel things yesterday.

The cause is the ever-growing coronavirus, which has been threatening any massive gathering of people in the world. Recently, GDC 2020 had to be postponed until the summer. Tomorrowland Winter, which was slated to take place next week in France, was also cancelled yesterday. Forthcoming events such as SXSW, Anime Expo, and E3 will go on as planned, but they’ll be closely keeping an eye on the situation.
