For those of you ravers that were daydreaming about one of the largest house music festivals in the States, let me tell you that Ultra lives up to it’s name.

The best weekend of my life doesn’t seem like a strong enough statement to sum it up.I needed a full week of recovery.

What was my favorite part of the experience? The vibe. Every single person there was in a happy, wild, carefree mood that was impossible not to notice.The one time I stepped away from my friends, I was constantly met by new strangers, making sure I was doing fine. Have you ever been genuinely catered by a group of strangers? I’m telling you, this was a different world.

Whether you live for house music, or just appreciate a bunch of people getting together to have a great fucking time, ultra won’t disappoint you. Which DJs killed it most? Swedish House Mafia, Borgore, Tommy Trash, Deadmau5, Armin Van Burren, and Hardwell, were my favorites. The Weeknd gave an incredible performance on the final night that was in perfect contrast to my ultra musical palette.

Being a Florida native, EDM may not have anything on our festival. But the lineup this year is rumored to be pretty great. The whole time I couldn’t help but remember how lucky I was to be there. Ultra 2013, you will forever be remembered.
