More than 2000 international DJs will be spinning at over 90 venues for ADE's 18th edition. Popular DJs to date such as Calvin Harris, Danny Tenaglia, Carl Cox, Laurent Garnier, and Netherlands’ very own Tiësto and Yellow Claw will take part in the first round.

In addition, the Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) features an extensive program for electronic music fans called ADE Playground. ADE Playground joins a series of special events, converting areas of the city center into pop-up stores and rare events with four categories: Art, Film, Gear and In-Stores.

ADE draws in 4.000 professionals from 75 countries for its seven independent conference topics, such as ADE Pro, ADE Tech and ADE Green. With this, ADE is the utmost platform for important dialogue and debate on electronic music. Speakers in the conference include Nile Rodgers, Armin van Buuren, Martin Kierszenbaum, Hardwell, Don Diablo, and Dave Smith, among others.
