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.

Alesso, Nicky Romero to perform at Road To Ultra: India 2020

With the 2020 installment of Road To Ultra: India coming in less than a month, organizers have revealed who’ll perform at the two day event today.

Four major producers will take over as headliners for the festival. Grammy-nominated producer Alesso kept the dancefloor moving with 2019’s “Sad Song” and “In The Middle.” In 2019, KSHMR dropped a plethora of collaborations with acts such as Timmy Trumpet (“The People”), Mike Waters (“My Best Life“), and Krewella (“No Regrets”). Nicky Romero will release his forthcoming Redefine EP later this year. Last month, he dropped the first single from the release titled “I See.” Vini Vici will unveil their new collaboration with NERVO and Shapov titled “My World” on Valentine’s Day. Vini Vici, Nicky Romero, and KSHMR are confirmed to perform at Ultra Music Festival in Miami.

For support, Road To Ultra: India is bringing some of the brightest names in the scene. As the resident DJ for Ultra, Mykris has performed around the world. Hailing from Italy, Olly Esse is one of the country’s most successful female DJs. Aside from performing at Road To Ultra: India back in 2017, Siana Catherine has found herself hitting up festivals such as Sunburn Festival and Godfather Beer Festival.
