Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) has completed its festival program for ADE 2024 with over 1,000 events in more than 200 venues over five days and nights. 3,000+ performing artists will participate in ADE 2024, making it the world’s largest and most influential club-based festival and conference for electronic music. Amsterdam Dance Event kicks off with five ADE Official Opening Concerts this year, taking place simultaneously on Wednesday, October, 16.
Dutch artist Eefje de Visser will play the glass atrium at the Van Gogh Museum unplugged, treating visitors to a fifty-minute performance of her songs in their truest form. Nick Verstand & the Cello Octet Amsterdam take on DOOR OPEN SPACE, where they present ‘COCON II’. This audiovisual live performance has been designed explicitly for ADE this year.
BIMHUIS presents a special collaboration between legendary free jazz singer Greetje Bijma and left-field artist Oceanic. The event will close with a genre-fusing concert by classically trained producer LUXE (live). 24classics will present ‘Philip Glass by Lavinia Meijer & Nikki Hock’ at the iconic Zuiderkerk, where Meijer’s hypnotic classical music meets Hock’s audiovisual works, and true to tradition, Melkweg welcomes Metropole Orkest, to collaborate with Miguel Atwood-Ferguson to play their tribute titled ‘50 Years of J Dilla’.
