ADE announces dates for this year's edition

Make sure you book time off in October

Amsterdam Dance Event is expecting more visitors than ever this year.

The world’s largest club-based festival and music conference reckons around 375,000 people will arrive in the Dutch capital for its 22nd edition, being held from October 18 to 22.

This year will also see ADE take its operation abroad to Mumbai, India in February and return to host a showcase at SXSW in Austin, USA.

Along with the announcement of the dates, ADE director Richard Zijlma said: “Amsterdam is the centre of the global electronic music scene during ADE, a hotbed for cultural and technological innovation. It’s amazing to see that thousands of delegates and music enthusiasts are spending more and more time in the city each year."

The festival has released a video recap of last year’s event which follows Octave One, Eats Everything, Ellen Allien and Sjamsoedin during their time at the event. Watch it below.
