The ULTRA brand in relation to live events was founded in 1997 in Miami by Executive Producer, President & CEO, Russell Faibisch, who began by producing electronic music events which led to the inaugural Ultra Music Festival® in 1999 on the sands of Miami Beach.
Over the past nineteen years, thousands of the world’s most iconic DJs, producers and live acts have mesmerized audiences with awe-inspiring sets at ULTRA festivals in ARGENTINA, BALI, BRASIL, CHILE, CROATIA, IBIZA, JAPAN, KOREA, SINGAPORE, SOUTH AFRICA and of course MIAMI, as well as ROAD TO ULTRA® events in BOLIVIA, CHILE, COLOMBIA, HONG KONG, JAPAN, KOREA, MACAU, PARAGUAY, PERU, THE PHILIPPINES, PUERTO RICO, SINGAPORE, TAIWAN, THAILAND and the USA. Each new global edition has been founded on the same successful recipe that has been perfected over nineteen years in Miami, combining the most diverse electronic talent with the most technologically advanced, large-scale festival productions in the world.
2016 and 2017 have seen the ULTRA and ULTRA WORLDWIDE™ brands continue to push the boundaries even further, bringing an unparalleled combination of cutting edge productions and the world’s best electronic acts back to previous strongholds and new frontiers across the globe. With the SOLD-OUT edition of ULTRA Brasil®, ULTRA Singapore™ having become a full scale two-day festival, RESISTANCE’s debut standalone South America Tour, and the debut of ROAD TO ULTRA®’s Hong Kong, 2016 was the brand’s most successful year to date. A RESISTANCE summer residency at Privilege Ibiza is confirmed for 2017, while ULTRA China will debut in Shanghai on September 9-10, 2017. Also in 2017, two ROAD TO ULTRA® events will take place in New Delhi and India. ULTRA® have revealed further expansion into Australia for 2018. The ULTRA brand will be present in at least TWENTY-THREE COUNTRIES across SIX CONTINENTS worldwide by the end of 2018.
Our MISSION is to spark positive social changes and speed up the evolution of human consciousness by using creative industries, top global artistic, educational and charity events as a means to spread the message of love and freedom to the whole planet; all this with a goal to make our VISION come to life – Humanity and Earth in harmony on all levels; local, regional and global.
Started as a student social movement in the year 2000, Exit has been the only world festival that was created from a wish for progress and freedom. The festival’s well-known identity developed through its unique eclectic music program, creating numerous socially responsible campaigns, as well as an active support to charity, ecologic and cultural movements and organizations.
EXIT is not only a festival, it is a movement, a symbol of progress and a motor of change in the society, but also the leading platform for creative industries not only in Serbia, but in the Balkan region as well – the region that has been torn apart by a decade of bloody wars, where young people still grow up full of hatred towards peoples of neighboring countries. We have accepted the challenge to change this reality, to make Balkan a symbol of unity and progress.
The sense and roots of our being lay in a strong wish to evolve and progress, as well as positive changes by which we create means to spread the message of freedom to as many people as possible. This spark cannot go out, on the contrary, the vision toward which we are headed has never been clearer – to become and endure as a generator of a strong positive energy that unites people, further inspiring them and making them believe that harmony and miracles are created by us ourselves.
Our missions are to, through festivals, creative industries and social activism, continue creating positive social changes and constantly improve ourselves on every step of the way, together with the people around us and society in general.
