Ultra Music Festival Cape Town 2026 in South Africa — runs Apr 26–27, 2026. The line-up has 17 acts on a single day spread over 2 stages.

About

The Cape Town leg follows on the heels of Joburg, with a tighter one-day bill that still pulls in most of the global headliners. Axwell, John Summit, DJ Snake and Afrojack share the top of the lineup with Shimza and Major League DJz, two of the country’s most exported names. The event leans on Cape Town’s strengths as a setting: a sunset-friendly outdoor format and a crowd that knows the difference between a polished progressive house set and a properly dirty amapiano roller. For a lot of attendees it doubles as a long weekend in a city that’s already a magnet for summer travellers.
