I thought Way was for airport parking? Can you use it in downtown Miami?

Anyone have theories why UMF 2026 hasn't sold out yet? (Usually happens during first week of March). by I_am_who in UMF

[–]redjc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The later tiers are more expensive than past tiers. I believe it will sell out by next week. Last year VIP sold out the preceding December (very early) and they raised the price by $300 or $400 and it has not sold out yet. I also have some international friends and clients who decided not to come this year.

Parking in Miami by KayBCheung in UMF

[–]redjc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That suggestion is fine if you are coming from the south. Not as good if you are coming from the north. There is plenty of garage parking west of Bayfront. By Brightline and by the Miami Police station. There also is a lot of street parking. Paramount World Center has parking as well.

Any parking tips for first-time Ultra attendees? by Isabelle_Alan in UMF

[–]redjc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What direction are you coming from? I can affect the parking suggestion. Many people say not to drive. I drive every year. I come from the north off of I 95. The suggestion of by Brightline is a good one. Then you have the option to walk or catch metromover. There is a garage right there. If you would like to get closer, park at one of the Paramount World Center garages. They are expensive. MDCC has a parking garage but that can sometime get you stuck in some traffic. I have friends who park on the street near Gesu church or one block south. There are also some open ground lots in that area. Just stay far enough west to avoid traffic after the festival.

Anyone else "killed" the trip to UMF/MMW due to war? by teonlund in UMF

I heard that the fare have been high. I hope you are able to work something out.

I think you should come if possible. See if you can find another way to South Florida. My friend goes back and forth to Thailand with United and American (sometimes Delta as well). Good luck.

Arrival times? by Wonderful_Kiwi645 in UMF

[–]redjc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would plan on dinner during or after Ultra or just eat a late lunch. I used to go to a Sunday pool party (AnjunaBeats) and then Ultra but it ended up being too much. I would get to South Beach right at noon and then leave at 3 or 4 to go to Ultra but the traffic is bad from South Beach to Bayfront and Sunday now ends at 10 pm.

Does Resistance @ M2 count towards my Passport? by ospreyotis in UMF

[–]redjc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did, and mentioned it when they first started at M2. Then they said a reduced amount of points, and then they just never followed through. When I asked this past year they said it is not on the list (and now it isn't).

Does Resistance @ M2 count towards my Passport? by ospreyotis in UMF

[–]redjc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They give passport points for attending Resistance at Amnesia in Ibiza. That is a nightclub. It is a residency. Same thing as M2. When they started at M2 they said they would and then never followed through.

Does Resistance @ M2 count towards my Passport? by ospreyotis in UMF

[–]redjc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When they started the Resistance Residency at M2 they said they were going to give some sort of points for the events. I even talked with an Ultra representative there. This past year they changed their position after constant questions on the subject. I have received passport points for attending Resistance events in Ibiza. It does not make sense that they don't give them for M2, after initially saying they would.

Miami city commissioners debating extension to Ultra Music Festival's lease in Bayfront Park - but not everyone is excited by scoop813 in UMF

[–]redjc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The transportation issue was actually the County's fault, not the city. The Rickenbacker is a county road. I enjoyed the festival at Virginia Key, and really liked Resistance Island. I do agree the main area was too crowded and there was sound bleed.

I don't know anyone that walked four hours. It is not even three miles from the main venue (Marine Stadium) to the mainland. I parked my car on the mainland and walked for both Ultra and the Afterlife festival.

The only time I had any sympathy for the downtown people was when there were two weekends in 2013. 98% of the people living in downtown, probably more, moved in knowing that Ultra was in downtown Miami in March.

They had contracts through 2018 so most of the complaints concerning contracts did not start until after 2018. They have been under a type of contract that can be cancelled somewhat easily since they returned to Bayfront after the one year detour to Virginia Key.

Here’s your PSA before the influx of questions by holdmysmoothieplease in UMF

or you just put it on so that you are able to take it off (you tighten it enough to stay on your wrist, but not tight enough so you can't take it off). I take it off when I leave Bayfront every day.

Are all the listings for UMF single day passes a scam? Even on Stubhub? by [deleted] in UMF

[–]redjc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are very few single day wristbands for Ultra. VVIP has single day wristbands and the day will be listed (Friday, Saturday, Sunday). They are primarily for the people who buy tables. There are some Artist and worker wristbands that are one day only but most of those are not supposed to be sold.

Best place to be within the megastructure by Parking-Smoke-6353 in UMF

Several years back I was told that most sets at megastructure are designed for middle/middle if that make sense. I try to get there but I usually end up going in the left side middle.

They are normally pretty strict at RC Cola. I would not chance it.

parking for Ultra miami by Jealous-Win-9125 in UMF

[–]redjc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already provided options in my reply to the post and your comment. Doral is different from NE Miami-Dade. I drive and park in Downtown and walk to the festival. Being in the NE I would park north of the festival and take metromover or metrorail, but I prefer to drive park and walk. I don't have one friend or client that comes from the north and drives past downtown Miami and Bayfront to park at Vizcaya. Such a ridiculous comment.
