As part of its 20th anniversary celebrations, Dutch brand Awakenings took over Amsterdam venue Gashouder for four nights on Easter weekend.

Around 3,500 ravers entered the industrial space each night, with the likes of Nina Kraviz, Marcel Dettmann, Ben Klock, Sven Väth, Kevin Saunderson and Ricardo Villalobos playing.

The Easter special is a prelude to Awakenings Festival on June 24 and 25, where over 100 artists including The Black Madonna, Maceo Plex, Julia Govor and Nastia perform in the Dutch capital.

For a taste of what the four-day Easter party was like, check out 20 photos in the gallery above.
