The Must-See Events At Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) 2024

Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) is almost here once again. The biggest week in dance music takes place from October 16th – 20th. The city comes alive all day and through the night with more events than you can wrap your head around. I have attended the last 2 years and I can confidently say it is one of the best experiences in the world. You will have more fun than you can imagine (little sleep) and be ready to do it all again by the end.

From DJs to managers to social media mavens to promoters, there is something to learn here for everyone. At night, the beautiful city of Amsterdam turns into one big party with every venue featuring a world-class artist. We decided to make it easy for you and list our favorite events this year that you must attend. This list is just the tip of the iceberg for what you can attend.

Get ready to dance and learn.
