Electronic Music Industry Set to Meet at Amsterdam ADE Return

COVID-19 has wreaked unbelievable damage to the music industry. But the world is recovering as COVID-19 recedes. Part of this recovery is in bringing festivals back. Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) is at the forefront having just received permission from the Dutch Government to hold their festival this year. Their return and the 25th edition of ADE is planned for October 13th to October 17th.
Amsterdam Dance Event, better known as ADE, is a huge and influential festival and conference. It has been running since 1996 and is attended by over 400,000 people every year. They flock to Felix Meritis at the iconic Amsterdam Canals to hear about the future of electronic music. Over five days, it celebrates electronic music of all genres. It is now held over 200 venues, which feature around 2,500 artists. The conference aspect of ADE is as important as the live music. ADE features 600 speakers who discuss all things dance music.
