My name is Megan and I come from Montreal, Canada. I expect a lot of good music and good memories from Ultra Europe. This is my first time at the Ultra Europe festival, but my second time in Split and Croatia. We really like it here and will surely return.

Ben, also from Canada, aims to embody the PLUR spirit, peace, love, unity, and respect, central to electronic music culture. "I am very excited," he said, noting this is his first Ultra Europe but not his first Ultra festival. Tony from California, making his first trip to Split, Croatia, and Europe, hopes the atmosphere will surpass even Miami's Ultra. "Europeans know how to party very well, they stay until sunrise and have a special atmosphere," he observed.

I came to Ultra Europe to experience the festival and convey the PLUR spirit, that is, the values of peace, love, unity, and respect that are part of electronic music culture. This is my first time at Ultra Europe and I am very excited. I am also in Split for the first time, although this is not my first Ultra festival.

I expect the atmosphere to be even better than at Ultra in Miami. I look forward to the energy, the people, and the community. This is also my first trip to Europe. Europeans know how to party very well, they stay until sunrise and have a special atmosphere.
