Ultra Europe 2025 wrapped up last weekend in Split, Croatia, with standout moments that drew attention both at the festival and online.

One of the biggest came during Alesso’s set, when Martin Garrix walked on stage to confirm the long-awaited release of their collaboration, “Inside Our Hearts.” First teased during their back-to-back set at Tomorrowland 2023, the track had remained unofficial until now, with only snippets circulating through ID forums and fan-recorded videos. The Ultra Europe crowd became the first to hear the final version live, and the official release date was announced on stage: July 25, 2025. After nearly two years of speculation, the moment gave fans clarity and a complete preview of what’s expected to be one of the summer’s most talked-about releases.

John Summit closed Ultra Europe for the first time this year, stepping into a Sunday slot that has traditionally been reserved for long-established headliners. His set combined unreleased tracks with vocal-heavy house selections, giving the final night a distinct shift from earlier mainstage performances.

Hardwell performed earlier that evening with a versatile selection that moved between big room house, techno sections, and even brief moments of hardstyle. Although he remained physically limited due to a recent knee injury, his track progression and timing kept the audience fully engaged. His set served as a reminder of how much range he still brings to large-scale festivals without relying on over-the-top stage effects.

Mau P and Adam Beyer’s back-to-back set at Ultra Europe 2025 brought together two distinct approaches to techno, keeping the RESISTANCE stage consistently focused throughout the night. Mau P introduced rolling basslines and crisp percussive elements, including updated edits of tracks already circulating in his club sets across Europe. Adam Beyer followed with a more minimal selection, using layered builds and looping progressions to push the tempo into darker territory. Rather than clashing, their styles created a structured balance that moved the crowd steadily forward. One of the most talked-about sections included a run of unreleased Drumcode tracks that fans quickly flagged on Reddit and ID forums. The set evolved with a clear sense of timing, showing the kind of coordination that comes from years of experience behind the decks.

Ultra Europe 2025 once again proved why Split, Croatia remains a key destination on the global festival calendar. With a lineup that spanned mainstage favorites, techno pioneers, and long-awaited collaborations, this year’s edition offered something for every kind of dance music fan. Full live sets from Martin Garrix, Alesso, Hardwell, Armin van Buuren, Joel Corry, Maddix, and more are now available on the EDM Addicts Live Sets 2025 playlist on YouTube, with additional uploads expected in the coming days. Whether you were there or watching from home, the weekend left no doubt about Ultra Europe’s continued place at the center of the summer festival circuit.
