02 — About the festival

L'industry summit dell'electronic music.

Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) è il più grande festival e conference electronic music al mondo. 31ª edition, 14–18 ottobre 2026. Cinque giorni che fermano Amsterdam: 2.700+ eventi su 200+ venue, 1.200+ artisti, 500.000+ attendees, 11.000+ industry professional accreditati ad ADE Pro.

Fondato nel 1995 da Buma — la collecting society olandese — come piccolo meeting industry. In 30 anni è diventato l'industry summit de facto della musica elettronica: dove agency chiudono booking per il Q4, label firmano artisti, festival programmano l'estate successiva, founder pitchano startup music-tech.

ADE Festival (pubblico, ticketed) e ADE Pro (industry-only badge) convivono per cinque giorni. Lineup, conference, networking, B2B meetings, label showcases, Berlin → Amsterdam shuttle, dopo-festa — tutto in un'unica città per cinque notti.

Senza ADE, l'industry electronic non avrebbe il suo punto fermo annuale. Le carriere si fanno qui, le opportunità si aprono qui.

05 — Press

What the press and the room say.

01

A patience that resists current peak-time conventions. ADE 2026's sets feel built, not assembled.

Resident Advisor · Feature · May 2026

02

A builder of slow tension. Few artists in techno can hold a single chord this long and make it feel necessary.

Mixmag · Cover review · Apr 2026

03

Berlin dub-techno's most credible inheritor from the Italian side of the door.
