Ultra Europe has officially unveiled the Phase 1 lineup for its 2026 edition, setting the stage for another massive summer gathering in Croatia. The globally renowned electronic music festival will return to Split’s Park Mladeži Stadium from July 10 to July 12, bringing together some of the biggest names in dance music for three days of performances along the Adriatic coast.
The initial announcement confirms a strong roster of international headliners, led by Scottish dance music superstar Calvin Harris and Dutch festival favorite Martin Garrix. They will be joined by a new wave of chart-dominating electronic artists including Dom Dolla and FISHER, whose collaborative energy and club-focused sound have made them standout figures in the global dance scene.
Also featured in the first phase reveal are house music star John Summit and Dutch producer Mau P, both of whom have experienced rapid growth in popularity over recent years. Their inclusion reflects Ultra Europe’s continued focus on artists currently shaping the sound of modern electronic music. Ukrainian melodic techno artist Miss Monique is another notable addition, bringing her distinctive sound and growing global following to the festival’s 2026 lineup.
Beyond the mainstage heavyweights, the Phase 1 announcement also highlights artists representing the darker and underground sides of electronic music. Techno powerhouse I Hate Models and hard techno standout Sara Landry are set to perform, while drum and bass collective Worship will introduce a high-energy live performance that adds further diversity to the bill.
Since its debut in 2013, the festival has become a major part of Croatia’s summer festival circuit, attracting thousands of international fans each year and expanding into a broader “Destination Ultra” experience across several Dalmatian locations.
