The Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) is a five-day electronic music conference and festival held annually in mid-October. The event, organised by The Amsterdam Dance Event Foundation, offers a full programme of daytime conferences at ADE Pro, ADE Tech, ADE University, ADE Beamlab, ADE Green, ADE Sound Lab and ADE Beats alongside the ADE By Day festival programme and the nighttime ADE Festival, which features over 1,000 events and 2,500 artists over five days in 200 clubs and venues. The most notable event is the Amsterdam Music Festival (AMF) in the Johan Cruyff Arena on Saturday night.[1]
ADE attracts over 500,000 people from all over the world to the city, making Amsterdam[2][3] one of the busiest clubbing cities in the world. The event starts off on Wednesday with the daytime conferences and the extensive festival (day and night) programme and ends on Monday morning.
