The first wave of acts make up a crème de la crème of global stars — including the UK's Blawan, Paula Temple, Flava D and Jamie Jones; Australia's HAAi and Logic 1000; The Netherlands' own Martin Garrix, Afra, Cincity and Tiësto; and Japan's Fumiya Tanaka.

This is ADE's first full festival and conference since 2019, as it was forced to cancel in 2020 and limited in 2021 due to COVID-19 restrictions. The 2021 edition saw the complete closure of the conference, however, some music events carried on at a reduced capacity.

The event takes place across Amsterdam and welcomes guests and performers alike into over 200 venues. The five-day-long event has a jam-packed programme full of Arts and Culture talks, DJ workshops, music showcases and more.

The full schedule will also be announced by organisers closer to the time. ADE is set to welcome more than 25,000 electronic music fans to the 2022 event to share ideas and enjoy music together.
