Details of the 2023 edition of Ultra Australia have been unveilved, with its Phase 1 lineup dropping this morning. The festival will be taking place at Sidney Myer Music Bowl & Kings Domain in Melbourne on Saturday, 15th April, 2023

The lineup also features Italian techno DJ Deborah De Luca, Dutch hardstyle duo Sub Zero Project, and English producer Darren Styles. Some local talent will also be making an appearance, with Sydney genre-shifter Timmy Trumpet joining festivities.
The 2023 edition of Ultra Australia will be the second in a row to be confined to Melbourne alone. Launching in 2018, the festival had expanded to Sydney in 2019 before a COVID-necessitated year off in 2020. It relaunched in 2021 as a Victorian-only affair.
The festival will be taking place as part of the recently-expanded Live At The Bowl celebrations, a showcase of local and international acts performing as part of a months-long series of events at Melbourne’s Sidney Myer Music Bowl early next year.
