‘This is one of the best events for dance
music in the world, and after this week,
we decide where we will go this year.’
Tiësto
‘It’s very rare to mix up the words relaxed
and business together, ADE does this
easily, you always end up with results in
a friendly atmosphere, it mirrors the spirit
of Amsterdam, subsequently it is always
a highlight in my diary.’
Dave Clarke
‘ADE is THE conference for electronic
music. There is nowhere else like it
where so many partners, friends & our
artists all gather under 1 roof for an
intense working environment. It exceeds
expectations every year with the number
of attendees & increased reach from
outside of Europe.’
