Ultra Singapore 2017: Our guide to artists you should be looking out for!

0

The 2nd edition of Ultra Singapore returns this weekend to Ultra Park. Unlike the first edition, Ultra Singapore is taking place bang in the middle of summer this year (probably to avoid the mess caused by last year’s rains).

This year’s line-up brags the presence of big names such as Hardwell, Tiesto, Nicky Romero, Steve Aoki, Dash Berlin and Steve Angello, KSHMR and Pendulum to name a few.

Even though fans are excited for the headliners, the beauty of a music festival lies in the discovery of new artists that some fans may not be aware of. So, before you head out to Ultra Park this weekend, check out the some artists to look out for at this year’s Ultra Singapore. As usual the Main Stage shall play host to all the superstar EDM DJs, the Live Stage has a mix of live performers and some huge DJ acts too, and the Resistance Stage shall be home to the Techno and underground legends.

Starting off on the Mainstage we’ve got the likes of Tiesto, Hardwell, Steve Angello, Don Diablo, Martin Solveig, GTA, and more all ready to turn up the heat and get you pumping. We’ve covered these artists on several segments here on T.H.E so we’re gonna skip on them and move on to the Live Stage acts.

The Live Stage has the likes of Tchami and Pendulum performing the closing sets over the weekend.
