Ultra Reveals Line-up for New Zealand Edition

Ultra Music Festival announced that it is venturing into a new market in New Zealand this year.

The festival has now rolled out the phase one line-up, revealing the first few names that will be on the way to Wellington for the first-ever Ultra New Zealand. New Zealand is set to host the iconic music festival’s debut edition at the Wellington Waterfront on April 10, 2026. “A new era of dance music begins in Aotearoa,” the festival wrote on Instagram. “Expect a world class, multi-stage production spanning the scope of electronic music. Phase 2 coming soon with even more to be announced.”

The Chainsmokers will fill attendees with nostalgia and offer the latest bangers as they headline the inaugural edition of Ultra New Zealand this year alongside dance music stars DJ Snake and Zedd. Miss Monique will bring her progressive house and melodic techno cuts to the festival, with industrial techno beats coming from Nico Moreno. 

Ultra New Zealand will also welcome Dutch future house virtuoso Oliver Heldens. Dutch-born Australian trance music heavyweight MaRLo and the UK’s Darren Styles complete the phase one line-up.

Ultra heads to Croatia in July for Ultra Europe after Ultra New Zealand. The globally renowned festival’s flagship event will be held at the Bayfront Park in Miami from March 27 to 29, 2026. Expect nothing less than jaw-dropping visuals, spectacular stage design and light setup, captivating sets, and supreme-quality sound across the Ultra main stage and Resistance stage. Stay tuned for more!
