The Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) is both a music conference and festival and is widely recognised as the global meeting point for the creative industry around electronic music. ADE consists of a ADE by Day (conference & festival) and ADE by Night (festival) program, with more than 1,000 events in nearly 200 locations. Which basically means that the city of Amsterdam breathes electronic music for five days and nights.

“Amsterdam is the centre of the global electronic music scene during ADE, a hotbed for cultural and technological innovation,” former ADE director Richard Zijlma is quoted in a press release from last year. “It’s amazing to see that thousands of delegates and music enthusiasts are spending more and more time in the city each year.”

Amsterdam Dance Event attracts more than 7,000 professionals from the electronic music scene and is the biggest club festival in the world with last year having 400,000 visitors from over 90 countries and over 2,500 DJs and artists from all around the world, spread out over almost 200 venues, a record number.

And that makes the Amsterdam Dance Event the leading electronic music platform and the biggest club festival in the world for the whole spectrum of electronic sub-genres.

Below a selection of the trance events on this year's ADE:
