Line-Up of the UMF 2015

UMF Line-Up

The Line-Up of the festival is shown like one or two months before the festival and it's a poster with the name of every Dj that comes to the festival, from the biggest like Hardwell, to the smallest like Dj Tennis. 

The Line-Up is formed first by the Dj Headliners that are ones of the best Dj's at the festival. 

Secondly,  comes the live headlines,  that are the bands with a Dj that play on the Live Stage. 

And in the bottom of the list,  there are a lot of names of Dj that are the Dj that join to the festival,  when the poster is almost done and they don't want to repeat it again. 

My favourite Dj's in the festival,  and the ones who I'm going to write in later posts are: Hardwell, W&W, Martin Garrix,  Blasterjaxx & MAKJ.

All right, I know that this is not the information you would like to read in a blog like this, but in other entries this blog is going to be better, sorry : (
 Let´s start:

Ultra Music Festival was founded in 1999 by the business partner Russel Faibisch and Alex Omes. The first festival was a one-day event at the end of the Winter Music Conference in 1999 with acts of Rabbit in the Moon and DJ Baby Anne. The event was just in South Beach in Miami, Florida, and was a complete success.

In March 2000, the festival back to South Beach as a one day event; the festival had greater success and immediately renewed for a third festival.



The festival took place between 1999 and 2000 in South Beach located in Miami Beach, then this step will be held at Bayfront Park, this time in Downtown Miami, between 2001 and 2005, again changed the site to Bicentennial Park, also in Downtown Miami between 2006 and 2011, until in 2012 and to date, has returned to perform at Bayfront Park.
