Essential Guide to ULTRA Korea 2025
Ultra Music Festival is one of Asia's premier electronic music festivals. This year ULTRA is returning to Korea for just one day in the heart of Seoul, and the spectacle will showcase a whole host of world-class DJs, incredible productions, and a night to remember. This article will tell you everything that you need to know about the festival!
Dates & Location
Date: Saturday, September 20, 2025
Venue: Oil Tank Culture Park, Seoul, South Korea
Age Restriction: This is an 18+ event.
Getting There
The festival's venue at Oil Tank Culture Park is in Seoul. Public transportation is highly recommended due to the large crowds expected. Check the official ULTRA Korea website for specific transportation guides, which may include shuttle bus services or detailed information on subway and bus routes. If you plan on driving, be aware that parking is often limited, but as the location this year is central Seoul, it should be easy enough to get there! Of course, due to large crowds and congested roads, it is best to set off early, to give yourself plenty of time to get there without stressing.
Tickets
For the latest ticket information, including General Admission (GA) and Premium General Admission (PGA) options, it is best to check the official ULTRA Korea website. Ticket tiers often include different perks, such as express entry and exclusive areas, so be sure to check the details before you purchase. Tickets in our experience tend to sell out fast, especially the cheaper lower tiered tickets, so it's best to snap yours up early to avoid paying higher fees.
What to Wear
Festival fashion at ULTRA is all about self-expression, and a great experience to dress up or dress down in what's left of Koreas hot and humid weather continues. The key is to wear something that is both bold and comfortable for a full day of dancing, and if you are lucky, then you might get caught on camera too!
Vibe: Think vibrant colors, sequins, holographic fabrics, and neon. Many attendees embrace a futuristic, cyberpunk, or rave-inspired aesthetic.
Comfort: Remember to wear comfortable shoes, as you will be on your feet for hours.
Accessories: Reflective sunglasses, face gems, hats, and small bags are popular choices to complete your look, and to stand out!
What to leave at home: For your safety and the safety of others, be aware of the prohibited items. This typically includes large bags (check the specific size policy), outside food or drink, and illegal substances, which of course go without saying!
