Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) 2026 is the world’s largest five-day electronic music festival and business conference. The festival is celebrating its 30th anniversary. During this time, the entire city of Amsterdam literally transforms into one giant dance floor and business hub.
The daytime program brings together thousands of producers, DJs, agents, and music marketers. It features masterclasses, panel discussions, equipment exhibitions, and pitching sessions.
At night, the city transforms into one giant dance floor: hundreds of parties take place at more than 300 venues, ranging from legendary clubs (such as Paradiso or Melkweg) to canal boats and hidden art spaces.
В рамках мероприятия проводятся кинопоказы, художественные выставки и публичные интервью с мировыми звездами.
The main headliners for the 2026 Amsterdam Dance Event anniversary edition—announced in the first wave of the lineup—include David Guetta, Armin van Buuren, Skepta, Amelie Lens, and electronic music pioneer Jean-Michel Jarre, who will officially open the festival with a concert.
