Yesterday at 1PM EST tickets went on sale for one of the world’s premiere electronic music events, Ultra Music Festival. When 1 o’clock hit there were 200,000 people waiting to buy tickets in the online queues, according to Ultra. 4 minutes later, all early bird tickets were gone. Then, due to what Ultra Music Festival is calling “a technical blip with the ticketing servers,” more early bird tickets were put on sale at 4:30 yesterday. Those tickets also sold out in under 5 minutes. Advanced tickets went on sale immediately following which sold out quickly as well. In 2014, Ultra Music Festival promises “A New Level”. That level better be amazing considering GA tickets are now priced at a staggering $399.95 before fees and taxes.
Not Worth $500. That’s absolutely insane.
Not worth it. Ultra blows. Electric Zoo Festival all the fucking way! <3
Amen
they didn’t even sell out…they just switched the price…the website was failing for 15mins.
try the website failed for 4 and half hours. thats when the prices finally settled at 400/ 500 after service fees and taxes
This is crap. They posted the banner saying Advanced tickets were sold out before they even went on sale. They quickly deleted it when they saw there mistake.
4 minutes? Yea right, IF they even actually sold early bird tickets, it sold out in less than a minute.
they sold out in 4 minutes because the amount of early bird ticket were less than a 1000.
this is bullshit I am new to the EDM scene and an aspiring DJ and was really looking forward to experiencing my first ultra music festival but 500 dollars a ticket is insane and makes me think that these festivals are for rich people with the way the economy is today it is hard to believe that their are 200.000 rich people willing to spend that much a ticket and makes me really upset that I will probly never be able to afford going to a festival I thought this EDM scene was about the music and the love of the scene not a get rich quick scheme.
This is what it takes to be “Top” DJ.
we haven’t even heard all the announcements for this year, i know theres gonna be something huge this year. my friend is an ultra representitive and said this year they are doing something insane. wouldnt tell me what tho, i bought an advanced ticket anyways, i know something crazy is gonna happen
not true. I tried to get early birds thru the computer for an hour, then called the number and waited on hold for 20 min but I ended up getting early bird tickets. Which was an hour and a half after they went on sale.
Did you cry while on the phone too? I think not crying cost me the tickets.
yes i clicks once it page updated- still, instant crash,… waiting a hour for it to load- then go to find out there sold out -.- i was also calling at the same time. lucky me i was able to get a pair at 430
See you there 😀
