We arrived at Nursery Park around 1:30. It was very hot and scorching with a high of 34 degrees Celsius in Kowloon. After passing the security check and getting in to the venue, we decided to get some food and beverage.☀️☀️

我們到達會場時大概1:30，香港的夏天實在太炎熱，當天的氣溫大概34度，過了安檢，排隊進會場後，基本已經全身濕透...所以我們決定進去後先找個陰涼的地方食點東西喝點啤酒休息一下。☀️☀️

BBQ Pork Crunch from Crunch Munch A delicious sandwich crispy on the outside yet fluffy on the inside with a combination of delicious BBQ~It's kinda surprising to find food trucks in Hong Kong.

意想不到的是香港竟然有美食車，還蠻好吃的，我們點了crunch munch的正爆BBQ脆，面包有點像油炸鬼，夾著自家叉燒和蛋皮。

Other food Trucks at the big circle. There are many food options for audiences to choose like burger from Beef & Liberty Hong Kong, Sorrowful Burger from Table Seven etc.

除了crunch munch，另外還有四個不同類型的美食車。

Next to the food truck, we found the electric soul booth. We found the blow up lounge chairs to relax on, beach umbrella to provide some shade under HK's sun and misting fan to help us cool down. What's more, we get our temporary tattoo and glittering to match our outfit.

美食車旁邊，我們看到一遍紅通通的，就走過去看看。我們看到很多人坐在一些氣椅子上，旁邊還有一些太陽傘和霧化風扇，好體貼的攤位。除了這些，它們還有化妝師幫忙化彩妝，臉上貼紙，閃鉆和閃粉都可以這𥚃免費拿：P

天氣實在太炎熱，不少朋友都在這裡休息。

等著拿閃粉和貼紙的人龍

@nicolemoker and I got some glittering and tattoo on our face and chest :P

我和Nicole往臉上和身上貼了很多貼紙和閃粉，還蠻特別的:D

Main Stage 舞台

The main stage was entirely made of LED display.It has a big "U"- shaped logo of the Ultra Music Festival brand was attached on the top-center of the stage and screens right under it and on both sides. It looks just fine in daylight but the stage became amazing at night as its bright lights enhanced the details of the stage

雖然這次比上一年升級了「兩倍」的舞台製作及規模，不過感覺還是有點小，舞台主要由LED顯示屏組成，舞台頂部中心側有一個大型「U」形標誌，中間左右兩側一共有三個顯示屏。白天看有點簡陋，不過晚上加了燈光效果和舞台效果就還不錯。

The light show at night~

Opinion 評價 : 🙌 🙌 🙌
I recommend people who love electronic music to go to a festival. It's completely different from clubbing or listening to your favorite sets at home through earphone. In a festival, you make new friends, new memories and get to discover all new artists at the same time. To me, edm festival is a sensory experience using state of art sound, kaleidoscopic light shows and firework. The stage and the scale of Road to Ultra Hong Kong is pretty small compared to Ultra Music Festival. But it's still a good experience to attend a festival in my hometown :P And what's more,I discovered a Canadian DJ and record producer Rezz that I like a lot.

總括來說，很推薦給喜歡電子音樂的朋友，電子音樂節對我來說是一場多重感觀的體驗，很多人說在電腦上看直播不也一樣嗎？相信我，看現場的氣氛比直播好一百倍，不單只是音樂，整個氛圍和視覺效果是在家𥚃看直播不能比美的。Road to Ultra Hong Kong雖然規模和舞台設計與Ultra festival比較下相對小和簡陋，不過也是一場不錯的電子派對。💃💃

Last but not least, here's the Road to Ultra Hong Kong 2016 Official Recap :P (They didn't make a new one for 2017, so let's just enjoy the 2016 version🙈)
最後送2016年Road to Ultra香港的宣傳影片 (因為沒有2017,所以大家先看看2016年的吧🙈)
