The press conference presenting Ultra Europe festival locations, updated line-up and the record-breaking ticket sales, was held at the Poljud stadium in Split last week. Ultra Europe has far exceeded all the expectations and it could easily enter the list of top ten electronic music events in the world at its very first edition.

Organizers have confirmed at the conference six more world class acts, who will join 30 performers so far confirmed for the premiere edition of Ultra Europe.
