WMC this year splits programming into two curated tracks — Industry and Creators — and adds a Gear Exhibition Hall plus an A&R Pop‑Up Lounge to expand networking and label scouting beyond panels and keynotes (wintermusicconference.com)). Organizers programmed daily rooftop pool parties hosted by partners including Beatport Live on the Kimpton EPIC pool deck and will close the conference with a Bridges for Music × International Dance Music Awards gala to honor electronic‑music creators (djanemag.com)). Ultra’s running order and official materials include an ADA guide, lockers, and a dedicated health & safety section on the festival site, and the organizer is pushing its app and running order updates as the primary source for last‑minute schedule changes (ultramusicfestival.com)). Tickets: the festival’s essential‑info guides report only limited GA and VIP passes remain, and organizers are directing late buyers to the official ticket portal and the Ultra app for last‑minute availability and set‑time pushes (edmidentity.com)). Miami‑Dade Transit is extending service for the festival weekend — Metrorail and Metromover will start at 5 a.m. and run into the early morning on the busiest nights with combined Green/Orange Line frequencies as often as every 15 minutes, and one‑day mobile passes are being promoted for $5.65 while Metrorail station parking is $4.50 for the day. (miamidade.gov)) City police have published a traffic diversion plan that reroutes northbound Biscayne Boulevard traffic and prohibits southbound traffic past NE 6th Street during the festival period, set up a resident hotline (786‑767‑7272), and scheduled a community forum about the event contract for early April. (wlrn.org)) III Points is presenting a late‑night closing showcase focused on Miami talent at The Ground, billed as an all‑local lineup that includes Coffintexts and Danny Daze among the homegrown DJs and selectors on the bill.
