Wednesday
Aperitivo @ Bordello
Bordello a Parigi, 15:00-01:00 (free entry)
Drinks with nice bites and good Italo. The perfect kickstart to your ADE in what might be our favorite record store.
Voices from the lake & Nadia Struiwigh @ Muziekgebouw
Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ, 19:30-00:00 (tickets)
A crossover between listening music and deep techno from the masters of the craft: Nadia Struiwigh and Italian duo Voices From The Lake.
Blue pill/red pill @ Borisov
Borisov, 20:00-22:00 (free entry)
No DJ behind the decks here, since the music is generated by artificial intelligence. In the atmospheric Borisov, this should account for an awesome place to have a drink.
Galactic funk x Pinkman @ OT301
OT301, 22:00-03:00 (tickets)
Raw electronics from Rotterdam in the former squat of OT301. For whoever wants to start ADE on a high.
Thursday
Rush Hour Instore
Rush Hour, 18:00-21:00 (free entry)
There's somebody playing in Rush Hour every day. Given the monumental status of this record store, it's more or less a given that the music's good.
Lyzza @ ISOamsterdam
ISOamsterdam, 20:00-23:30 (tickets)
Lyzza debuted in the Amsterdam nightlife at the age of 16 and has been a phenomenon since. During ADE she presents a new audiovisual liveshow about her career in the music industry as a black woman. A must see.
Polychrome Audio x RPU @ Studio/K
Studio /K, 19:00-06:00 (tickets)
We love raves in cinemas, and this one has a very decent line-up, good VJ's and three halls with plenty of options. Nice for the people not looking for a standard basement techno party.
Friday
Repere x Kafenion Micro Coffee Sessions @ Kafenion
Kafenion, 09:30-19:30 (free entry)
Greek coffee specialities and Romanian minimal. The perfect start to an ADE Friday, or just a nice stop for a coffee and some tunes.
LeMaia x Partisan x Night Moves @ De Loft
De Loft 16:00 - 22:00 (tickets)
Whoever can get their hands on a ticket for De Loft should always go, even if it's just to have been there. The line-up on Friday is mouth watering with Alexia Glensy and two rare b2b's from Anthea and Oshana, and Jane Fitz and Jade Seatle. This will be a sunset to remember.
Feed residents @ Feed
Feed Amsterdam, 18:00 - 02:00 (free entry)
The food and the dance is good at Feed in the Wibautstraat, where a handmade soundsystem and good disco dj's always provide some good vibes. For those of you who want to channel their inner Dutchy: they play every ADE evening, entrance is free.
Re:master Dance Opera @ Tempel
Tempel, 20:00 and 21:30 (free entry, registration necessary)
In a beautiful modernist building at the Tolstraat opera students will combine their craft with the intimate music of Cousin. It's a short performance, but one that should be very memorable.
Bordello a Parigi @ Noorderlicht
Noorderlicht, 23:30 - 05:30 (sold out, try Ticketswap)
Where else to go when Bordello is hosting a party on the ADE Friday? In the always cosy Noorderlicht we have Barbara Boeing and Alexander Robotnick on the bill, next to Bordello fixture I-F. Good vibes, the music is dancable yet challenging enough.
TranceParty:100%Dost @ Parallel
Parallel, 23:59 - 06:00 (tickets)
Evian Christ brings his notorious TranceParty to ADE. Not for the faint hearted, because you will be bombarded with strobes and insane trance tunes.
Saturday
Dogma X Nous'klaer
Borisov, 15:00-06:00 (free entry)
We've been regulars at Nous'klaer's free ADE party, they do it every saturday together with the Dogma collective. Although they've gone a different musical course from us in the last years, this is going to be the last one they're doing together. Strong melancholic feels guaranteed.
Sentinel Island Disco X Sissi's
Sissi's, 17:00 - 05:30 (tickets)
ADE Saturdays are hard if you want to find a nice crowd and some good music. Sentinal Island Disco's setting at Sissi's sounds ideal though: an intimate setting at a former school building, filling multiple rooms with good house and disco.
Radio TNP
Cinetol, 23:00-06:00 (tickets)
Creative hub and cinema Cinetol hosts Radio TNP again this year, with a nice and varied line-up. From the weird chaos of Istanbul Ghetto Club to french hypnotic house icon Gilb'r, this one has it all.
Dam Swindle
De Koepelkerk, 21:00-03:00 (tickets)
Some of our country's finest house music in the location it might as well deserve: a church. The line-up is secretive (only Dam Swindle is confirmed) but this looks very promising.
A Disko Disko Dance Event
Pacific Amsterdam, 23:00-05:00 (tickets)
We just love to see Rees in action! Combine that with an intimate venue and great disco tunes, and you got yourself an excellent night!
Sunday
Giegling
Yellow House, 08:00-01:00 (tickets for sale on 19th of september through Facebook)
This is the one. 17 hours of one of the world's finest electronic music labels in one of the most exciting hotspots in Amsterdam: Yellow House. Sky-high expectations.
Breakfast Club
Hemkade 48, 10:00-22:00 (tickets)
Pricy, but includes breakfast. These ten to ten parties are legendary staples of ADE, and visiting one of these once in your life is obligatory. Given the wildly varied line-up (from Tsepo's warm deep house to Jeff Mill's raging techno) there's something for every state of mind here.
Strangelove
Lofi, 14:00-22:00 (tickets sold out, try Ticketswap)
Another daytime party, this time hosted by Job Jobse's Strangelove at the nice and industrial Lofi. Given the permanent hype around this guy this will be a proper party, especially given the fact that he brought in one of Berghain's newest residents Sedef Adasi.
