ADE Sets October 20-24, 2027 for Its Next Edition After a 30th Anniversary With Nearly 4,000 Artists

If you want to pitch, network or play at Amsterdam Dance Event next year, put October 20-24, 2027 in your calendar now. ADE has confirmed the dates for its next edition, and its tickets page already offers pre-registration for the ADE 2027 Pro Pass pre-sale at its lowest rates.

The announcement came as the 30th edition closed. ADE says this year brought nearly 4,000 performing artists to more than 300 venues across five days and nights. Regular rooms such as Gashouder, Paradiso, Melkweg, Ziggo Dome, Shelter and Bajes were joined by one-off locations including the Centrale Markthal and the ARTIS Aquarium. Jean-Michel Jarre was Guest of Honour, speaking on AI and spatial sound before playing an audiovisual show at AFAS Live.

Two parts of the week matter beyond Amsterdam. ADE Lab split into a free Discovery track and an academy programme called On Track. ADE and VibeLab also published the first Nighttime Culture Index, built on more than 12,000 line-ups, 3,000 venues and nearly 30,000 events worldwide. ADE says more 30th-anniversary events will be announced in the coming months.
