Steve Aoki, DJ Snake announced in phase 1 lineup of Ultra South Africa 2020

Ultra South Africa has announced the 2020 phase one lineup. The local instalment of the one-day dance music festival will be held at The Ostrich Farm in Cape Town on 28 February 2020 before heading to the Nasrec Expo Centre in Johannesburg on 29 February 2020.

The Ultra South Africa 2020 phase one artist lineup features a stacked roster of legendary artists making their festival debuts, alongside veteran acts returning for another year of high-octane performances.

Headlining the 2020 Main Stage is returning hitmaker and international crowd-pleaser DJ Snake, who will be back to close down the Cape Town and Johannesburg shows in the spectacular fashion he is known for.

Ultra SA’s Main Stage will also feature South Africa’s Black Coffee, who is one of the region’s proudest dance music exports and has cemented South Africa as a hub for inventive deeper, electronic sounds.

Playing alongside these two legends is none other than the time-travelling global DJ superstar Steve Aoki on his first Ultra SA appearance. Aoki was recently ranked as one of DJ Mag’s Top 10 DJs in the world.

Recently, after a mind-blowing performance closing the main stage of Ultra Japan, flying back into Ultra SA for the third year, Dutch superstar Afrojack will return to blow up the energy of the Main Stage as he does every time he’s here.

Jeffrey Sutorius, previously the frontman of Dutch supergroup Dash Berlin who is now carrying on the moniker solo, will be bringing The Return Of Dash Berlin to Ultra SA to reintroduce local trance fans to the iconic project in all its glory.

For fans of the darker shades of electronic music, Ultra’s award-winning underground brand Resistance will return to offer groovy house and techno vibes from headliner Jamie Jones. The Hot Creations label-head and respected tastemaker will be making his South African debut. The Resistance brand continues to grow internationally with sold-out shows in Ibiza and Latin America.

Stay tuned for new announcements including artists, the brand-new BudX stage, and the return of the 5FM stage, plus expanded production plans for 2020.
