Amsterdam Dance Event – Festival Abroad

Build ADE as a set of separate events

Amsterdam Dance Event combines a city-wide electronic music programme with conferences and professional activity. Individual festival and arts events are run by external organisers, which manage their own tickets. Plan around the specific venues and sessions you want rather than one festival entrance.

A pass is not a guaranteed place in every room

ADE Pro access to the festival and arts programme is subject to venue capacity. Check the pass benefits and any event-specific procedure before relying on it for a particular show. A conference session, a club night and an independently sold ticket are different booking decisions.

Leave room between venues

Map your selected venues and leave time for queues, travel and accreditation collection. Use the organiser’s information desk guidance if you need to collect a pass. Accessibility and age restrictions should be checked with the venue or event organiser; a rule for one ADE show does not cover the whole city.

Before you book

These are the details to confirm for the edition you are attending.

  • Every must-see event is covered by the right ticket or pass conditions.
  • Your schedule allows time to move between venues and collect accreditation.
