Legendary DJ Carl Cox to Unveil Evolution Live Set at Ultra Music Festival’s 25th Anniversary
Excitement is mounting for the 2025 Ultra Music Festival, taking place at Miami’s Bayfront Park from March 28-30. With a stellar initial lineup and announcements of exclusive performances, the festival is set to be a remarkable celebration. Today, it was revealed that Carl Cox will debut his new live performance, Evolution, as part of the 25th anniversary edition.
Carl Cox has been a pivotal figure at Ultra Music Festival since his debut in 2001. He established the Carl Cox & Friends stage in 2005, played a significant role in launching the RESISTANCE initiative, and showcased his Hybrid Live set at the festival in 2022. With Evolution, he will continue this legacy by presenting his first fully live set at Ultra Miami.
“This means I’ll be playing my music live on stage, using a combination of hardware and software to create and manipulate sounds in real-time,” Carl Cox explained about the Evolution performance. “Unlike a DJ set with pre-recorded tracks or my hybrid set that combines elements of live performance and DJing, I’ll be crafting and evolving the music live, adding an extra layer of spontaneity and energy to the performance.”
The Evolution live show is set to close the inaugural Carl Cox Invites stage takeover of the RESISTANCE MegaStructure. This performance will undoubtedly be a highlight for house and techno enthusiasts, featuring a lineup of talented artists. Joining Carl Cox are renowned acts such as Stephan Bodzin, Joris Voorn, and Marc Romboy. Additionally, Christopher Coe will perform b2b with the legendary Richie Hawtin, who will present his DEX EFX X0X live show. Dubfire will showcase his live visual experience EVOLV, while Adam Beyer will bring the signature Drumcode sound to the stage.
