ADE-FACTS

- You thought there were a lot of parties at the festival? Look at the crowd it attracts! In 2018, ADE attracted 400,000 visitors to the city from all over the world. To put this number in perspective, the city itself has a population of 820,000.

- ADE is not just about all-night partying. There is plenty to do during the day. On top of ADE's daytime programme, there is a conference programme and local spots give their own interpretation and response to the festival, in their own way. As you'll see, the five days in Amsterdam are all about ADE and the event is all over the city.

EXCLUSIVE LOCATIONS TO KEEP AN EYE ON

While our agenda provides a snapshot of some of the major events, don't forget that there are many more events happening all around the city. Some venues that are also hosting special ADE events, which you might want to keep an eye on, include Club Prime, Club Noir, Supperclub, and Jungle Club. If you're looking for an exclusive experience, we do offer Special Event ticket access for these locations during ADE.

PANAMA X ADE

A club that stays close to the theme is Panama, with their yearly ADE opening and after party. They have 4 events planned this year with artists from all over the world.  Your Amsterdam Nightlife Ticket gives you access to the club from Thursday to Sunday so make sure you check what’s on during your ADE visit.

ADE BY DAY

There is so much to celebrate around electronic music. Music takes the centre stage during the night, but during the day you only see the tip of the iceberg. Film, art, live music, photography, gear demonstrations, technology events; everything you can think of is represented. ADE Amsterdam is not just the perfect opportunity to hear electronic music and all its subgenres, it's also a great way to learn more about your favourite artists.

 There is a Sound Lab Programme at Brakke Grond and also MusicTalks, if you happen to have a demo in your pocket that you want to get feedback on, you can show it off during the demo pitch. Was that all? Nope, let's not forget to tell about the workshops and master classes and ADE BeamLab dedicated to top-notch stage designs and visual technologies.

ADE BY NIGHT

Nightfall is the start of everything that is essential to ADE: music. Everyone is involved, and that is no exaggeration with the number of venues participating. Everywhere you go, everything you do, there is literally no chance of escaping the event.

An overwhelming fear of missing something is a realistic fear of this five-day spectacle. There is so much, going to everything is impossible. And that's why Amsterdam Nightlife Ticket is your chaperone through the psychotic party calendar. There's a host of clubs that always bring a new level to ADE, but there's also some insider information we want to share with you. We'll tell you exactly what not to miss!

ANT X ADE

Your Amsterdam Nightlife Ticket opens the doors to over twenty Amsterdam night clubs and bars. Not just a random selection of places, but a carefully selected range of hotspots. 

The smaller clubs in the repertoire show everyone ADE isn’t just about the big names. There’s plenty of room for new sounds, experimental music and up and coming artists eager to present their tunes to the hungry festival crowd. Amsterdam Dance Event takes full control over the city during this five-day festival and with your Amsterdam Nightlife Ticket, you’re one step ahead of everyone else.

PRACTICAL INFO X ADE

Public transport is fully operational during the festival, although that still means around midnight tram drivers go to sleep and public transport options are pretty much non-existent.Rent a bike to get back to your hotel, or use your Amsterdam Nightlife Ticket Uber deal. Uber deal?

We know partying can make you hungry so we have some food deals lined up and a few other nice extra’s. Head over to the extra’s page to see exactly what we have done to make your ADE Amsterdam experience convenient and smooth.
