One of Miami\u2019s most well known music festival has come and gone once again.<\/p>\n
This music festival is the Miami version of Coachella, Lollapalooza and other nationally known music gatherings.<\/p>\n
March 23, 24 and 25 were the magical days of Ultra this year.<\/p>\n
The festival itself is based around EDM (electronic dance music), making it the ultimate hot spot for shinny body suits, swim suits, very little clothing, very questionable clothing and every color you can possibly imagine.<\/p>\n
This year, Ultra held it\u2019s concert at Bayfront park with its multiple-stage layout in the middle of downtown Miami, bringing in more than 165,000 people from 60 different countries.<\/p>\n
With a lineup featuring world-class talent, unbelievable production, and fans from around the world, Ultra was set for success. Some headliners were Major Lazer,\u00a0Alan Walker, DJ Snake\u00a0and\u00a0Justice and many more.<\/p>\n
The 218 performers drew in sold out tickets ranging from $300 to $1,300 for the three-day VIP ticket.<\/p>\n
It is very interesting because the news media didn\u2019t really cover anything on Ultra. If it weren\u2019t for half of the students at my school attending this festival, I wouldn\u2019t know much about it.<\/p>\n
Even when I Google stories on it, it\u2019s kind of just reviews on EDM music websites saying what it was about and how well they did.<\/p>\n
There was also nothing really to report about. According to one article there were only 35 arrests this year, which was 50 percent lower than previous years and only 50 people had to be transported to the hospital.<\/p>\n
I guess reporters decided that Ultra Music Festival wasn\u2019t interesting enough to cover and nothing super exciting or newsworthy happened.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
