ADE in Amsterdam

Amsterdam Dance Event never fails to bring in the crowds with world-famous established names on the line-up alongside an enormous list of rising stars. The playlist is always suitably diverse, featuring electro, acid, techno, trance, house, hip-hop, drum 'n' bass and other beat-filled sounds to make you move. With a huge number of events and parties taking place, this annual festival sees more than 2,500 artists descend on 200 locations across the city to provide 5 days of guaranteed partying for in the region of 400,000 clubbers.

Big acts, big stages

Every year the biggest names in dance music headline the Amsterdam Dance Event. By the time it gets to mid-October, every space in the city is filled with talents, from AFAS Live, Paradiso and Melkweg, to the clubs on Rembrandtplein and Leidsplein and all the smaller venues in between.

ADE By Day

Another popular element of the festival is ADE By Day: a daytime programme that transforms Amsterdam into the largest pop-up shop on the planet with a host of studio sessions, hardware workshops, art, movie screenings and exhibitions, topped off with in-store and outdoor performances by record labels, DJs and artists.
