SINGAPORE - Jakarta-based Indonesian rapper Rich Chigga and homegrown electronic music acts Jasmine Sokko and Myrne, among others, will be part of outdoor electronic dance music (EDM) festival Ultra Singapore.

The festival, which will be held on June 10 and 11, returns to the Ultra Park located at a field next to Marina Bay Sands Tower 1.

The regional support acts were announced on Wednesday (May 17) as part of the second phase of the line-up, which already features heavy hitters of the EDM world such as Tiesto, Hardwell and Steve Angello.

Other acts announced include Singapore-based acts such as singer Sam Rui, DJ duo Rave Republic and DJ Oliver Osborne, as well as Australia's Will Sparks, Malaysia's JonnyVicious and China's DJ L.

Ultra Singapore is a spin-off of the famous Ultra Miami, which started in 1999. The first edition of Ultra Singapore, held last year on Sept 11 and 12, saw a total of 45,000 party-goers over both days.

Tickets, ranging from US$115 (S$160) to US$178 (S$248) are already on sale via UltraSingapore.com/tickets.
