Electronic music gathers here

Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) is the most upfront, influential, and educational gathering for electronic music and its industry. With its conference, festival, and educational breeding ground, ADE is able to create not only the biggest yearly industry tent-pole moment but also a solid foundation for future generations of electronic music professionals. The event attracts a total of more than 1,000 events in nearly 200 locations across its multidisciplinary program; for five days and nights, the city of Amsterdam truly breathes electronic music.

ADE is organized by the Amsterdam Dance Event Foundation, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to nurturing electronic music, its culture, and its industry worldwide. The organization devotes itself to stimulating development, innovation, and talent, gathering the global industry, and laying a foundation for future generations.
