It’s back and more colorful and even louder than ever: The grand return of the Ultra Music Festival in downtown Miami.
People from all over the region, and likely the country, expressed their excitement Friday.
Sky 10 flew above the crowd earlier in the day, capturing images of festival-goers pouring in, on Day 1 of this three-day event.
“The Miami vibe – I expect something special,” one attendee said. “Everybody is here from so many places in this world, and (we’re) all here to experience one thing: music.”
The COVID-19 pandemic canceled the event the last two years. The fest was moved to Key Biscayne the year before that.
But now? It’s back to downtown Miami, where it all started.
With all the excitement comes the big crowd and a big responsibility for first-responders.
“We have Narcan, we got IV fluids – we have anything that may be needed, whether it’s a diabetic emergency or cardiac emergency,” Lt. Pete Sanchez said.
