For those of you who do not know what WMC is:
"Winter Music Conference, in its 26th consecutive year, is one of the most publicized annual music gatherings in the world. A pivotal platform for the advancement of the industry, WMC 2010 attracted 1,909 artists and DJs, 3,763 industry delegates from 70 countries and over 100,000 event attendees for a concentrated schedule of more than 414 events, parties, seminars and workshops presented across 5 days. Over 2 million visitors from 183 countries log on to the WMC website each year." -wintermusicconference.com
100's of thousands of people attend every year bringing the city of Miami a huge injection of tourists from all over the world. Thousands of artist and DJ's from around the world come to show off their true skills and newest work. The atmosphere in Miami absolutely changes and everybody's enthusiasm for the art is seen all over the city. Needless to say, there is not a dull night the week of WMC. If you have never been in Miami during the conference, it definitely should be placed on your list of things to do. Plan in advance as hotels and airfare can begin to get very pricey. Winter Music Conference, I believe, begins 1st week of March and traditionally is followed by Ultra Music Festival. However this year- Ultra falls at the end of March 25th- 27th.
What is UMF?
"Ultra Music Festival is an annual outdoor electronic music festival that occurs in March in the city of Miami usually during the annual Winter Music Conference. It was a 1-day festival from 1999-2006, a 2-day festival from 2007-2010, and has been announced as a 3-day festival in 2011. It is one of the highest grossing music festivals in the world." - WikiPedia
