“Awakenings is returning to ADE this year, and we have our sights set higher than ever," explains marketing manager Tim Middelesch. "With a total of nine events, including a special marquee billing that will be announced on Tuesday, we’re honoured to provide our visitors with incredible day and night events this year.

"We’re thrilled to be able to book such household names year after year, but it also feels amazing to provide a stage to upcoming talent we believe in. It’s crazy to see that even after having done two major festivals already this year, tickets still fly out the door, for instance Amelie Lens’ night [at ADE] was completely sold out within within 24 hours.
