Another achievement for this festival is its complete dedication to sharing and shedding light on the sheer musical talent from the Netherlands! According to Richard Zijlma, the director of ADE, “The Dutch creative industry has a strong global reputation, and represents an (export) value of billions, partly thanks to the dance scene. Through our international activities we intend to increase that value and create a springboard for Dutch talent.” 

He also spoke about why Amsterdam is the ideal place to hold an electronic music festival, “Amsterdam is the centre of the global electronic music scene during ADE, a hotbed for cultural and technological innovation. It’s amazing to see that thousands of delegates and music enthusiasts are spending more and more time in the city each year.” 

Last year, ADE was such a massive success that it played host to almost 1000 events in 140 venues over 5 days, attracting more than 375,000 visitors. Now, that’s what we call a hit! Book your tickets for this year’s edition here.
