| You mean at one time or throughout the entire week? Don't forget it is people's spring break, and fashion week at the same time as WMC |

I thought about this number and how the hell can you judge this? WHat if a Miami local went to just one party...does that count?
Ultra had to have at least 30K people alone... |

ultra typically has over 60k ppl with every year surpassing the previous. over both days ultra brought in AT LEAST over 100k ppl. |

| maybe for both days ultra had 30k Really was not crowded this year at all. I'm not complaining, traffic was bearable, taxis were easy to find, lines weren't super long. I will agree that it has been one of the more slower years. |

That seems like a really big number for this year. Parking over there was so easy this year. |

its been listed on other nitelife sites from reliable sources that ultra had a 25k firstday turnout and a 75k second day turnout, record numbers, so hiram is right, and you might want to get your eyes checked.;) :D but overall yes, i noticed that space wasnt nearly as slammed as years passed, not even close, and it used to be mayham pretty much all nite, and this year you could walk in at pretty much anytime of nite this year. |

I do not believe any website's exaggerated numbers for that weekend. Any numbers posted like that are BS and are used to help promote and contract next year's Ultra. The party keeps getting harder and harder to throw. Did it really feel like 3 times the amount of people the second day? |

well take this into account. there was at least a few thousand more ppl there for day one this year. and ultra consistently brings in 70k or more for its main event, check past numbers.. there was alot more space to roam this year because they did away with the exaggeratedly abundant "vip areas" that give you "great views".
plus these numbers are coming from mostly ultra haters who have admitted they were wrong.
as for ultra next year.. if you havent heard they plan on building an art museum in the bicentenial park location. construction starts next year. |

Total distinct people. If one person went to an event @ WMC, then came back 2 days later, that counts as one, but I know it is nearly impossible to count this total number... Was kind of just looking for about how many people total... I guess if we had total ticket sales data for each event that would help! |
