Rain, fireworks, unreleased tracks, and raw emotion—Martin Garrix delivered a show that will go down in Ultra Music Festival history.
A Night That Redefined the Mainstage
Ultra Miami 2025 hit legendary status the moment Martin Garrix stepped onto the mainstage. Closing out the 25th anniversary of one of the world’s most iconic festivals, Garrix gave fans far more than just a DJ set—he delivered an unfiltered, emotional, and career-defining performance that left the crowd breathless.
As the rain poured and the crowd pulsed with anticipation, Garrix lit up Bayfront Park with a musical journey that was part euphoria, part storytelling, and all heart. With lasers dancing across the Miami skyline and new music dropping left and right, this set was a love letter to his fans, his career, and the global dance music community.
From Poolside Vibes to Festival Fireworks
The magic began even before Ultra kicked off. On March 27, Garrix gave fans an exclusive taste of what was to come at the STMPD RCRDS Pool Party at the Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel. Ditching the festival flash, he went deep and personal with a stripped-down, groove-driven set that showed his intimate side as both a producer and performer.
It was the calm before the storm—and fans who caught it knew they were in for something special.
Unreleased Anthems That Shook the Crowd
Garrix’s Ultra set was stacked with world premieres and ID-packed moments that sent shockwaves through the crowd.
- “Begging for More” (w/ Arcando & Bonn) — A soaring, emotional anthem that instantly became a fan favorite.
- “Out of Nowhere” (w/ Arijit Singh) — A cross-cultural masterpiece that blended Singh’s haunting vocals with Garrix’s signature melodic punch.
As each new track dropped, the crowd sang along to lyrics they’d never even heard before—a testament to the pure connection Garrix has built with his audience.
Surprise Guests and Next-Level Collaborations
Garrix didn’t just headline—he shared the spotlight with some of the biggest names in the game:
- LAUV joined him live to premiere “Mad”, a heart-wrenching follow-up to their hit “Told You So”.
- Zedd stormed the stage for an explosive version of “Follow”, proving their longtime friendship is still hitting new highs.
And if that wasn’t enough…
- Afrojack and Garrix debuted “Our Time”—a powerful, unifying anthem that had the entire crowd bouncing in sync.
- Armin van Buuren and Garrix brought trance and progressive house together with the world premiere of “Sleepless Nights”—a monumental blend of two dance titans at the top of their game.
STMPD RCRDS Takes the Spotlight
Garrix didn’t just showcase himself—he put his label family front and center. Tracks from Matisse & Sadko, Julian Jordan, Citadelle, Blinders, and DubVision lit up the night, each one a testament to STMPD RCRDS’ rising power in the global scene.
Every drop proved that Garrix is not just a headliner—he’s a mentor, a tastemaker, and a label boss pushing boundaries.
A Raw, Emotional Finale: “Angels For Each Other”
Just when it seemed the night couldn’t get any more unforgettable, Garrix closed with a stunning surprise: “Angels For Each Other”, featuring his own vocals. Vulnerable, stripped down, and achingly beautiful, the track left fans in tears and sealed the night with pure emotion.
Standing under a sky lit with fireworks, Garrix spoke to the crowd with honesty and awe:
“I’m full of adrenaline, disbelief, and wow. The whole journey for the last 12 years has just been a dream. Thank you for everything—I can’t wait to see you soon.”
