Every summer, Ultra Music Festival is one Houston’s most well known festivals. In 1989, the tour was started when the city noticed its residents were leaving for the weekends because of the lack of big events. Ultra Music Festival was still in the develop phase when Simon Teisberg came with the specific details that have come to define the tour. The new event did not receive much financial support or much advertising, so the festival started out pretty small, featuring a lot of the city's performers..

It took three years, but eventually word spread and Ultra Music Festival received some national attention The tour started to get more acts that had made a name for themselves around the country and it began to warrant the kind of attention its creators dreamed it would receive one day. Hotel rooms in the city were soon being booked months in advance for the dates around Ultra Music Festival.

Now Ultra Music Festival sells out months in advance, with tickets generally gone before the first week of their being released. Organizers of the tour no that they have a responsibility to ask local groups to perform, even though they could probably get just about any band they want. Ultra Music Festival is always getting bigger, adding new stages, more artists, and more booths every year.

The tour is once again the biggest of its kind this year. More bands than ever will be there with huge names and great up and coming groups.
