The Ultra Music Festival In Miami Canceled Due To Coronavirus Fears
The Ultra Music Festival, which was scheduled in Miami March 20-22, has been canceled due to the coronavirus. Artists like Afrojack, David Guetta, DJ Snake, and Tiesto were all set to perform. The event has been rescheduled for March of next year. The organization made the announcement on their social media accounts and website, writing:
“Dear Ultranauts,
It is with a heavy heart that we inform you that The City of Miami has issued an official directive requiring that the 22nd edition of Ultra Music Festival, originally scheduled for March 20, 21 and 22, 2020 will be postponed to March 26, 27 and 28, 2021. Due to the Florida Governor’s declaration of a public health emergency and Centers of Disease Control and Prevention’s Interim Guidance for COVID-19, it is impossible for the City to provide access to Bayfront Park at this time.
We completely understand how extremely frustrating this is because so many of you are looking forward to coming to Ultra, having already made travel arrangements.
This is, however, an unprecedented issue which is not being taken lightly, and we must continue to defer to the authorities for guidance. Ultimately, there is no higher priority for us than the health, safety and physical well-being of each of you, together with everyone else involved in the production of the event.
We sincerely thank you for your continued loyalty and patience during this difficult time.
All ticket purchasers will be contacted by email on Monday regarding next steps.
– Team Ultra”
