ULTRA has certainly come a long way since its inception in 1999. These facts about ULTRA will certainly make your jaw drop.
The juggernaut event-production company, ULTRA, hosted 45 events that more than 1,000,000 people attended. To put that in perspective, that’s more than the combined population of Greenland, Iceland, Brunei, and Guam!
With its first Australian event scheduled in Melbourne next year, Antarctica is the only continent on the planet without an ULTRA-event. However, a certain well-informed penguin in Antarctica told us that ULTRA plans to host an event there by 2020.
