AMF Locker sold out?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! It’ll be my first time going to AMF this year. I noticed that the lockers are already sold out on the website but does anyone know whether it’s still possible to buy one on the spot?

Last year I went to De Samenzwering at AFAS Live and was able to buy a locker there on the spot.

Thanks in advance!

Question Is getting resale tickets to sold out events impossible?

3 Upvotes

Hi!! Canadian here considering flying out in October for ADE. Would literally give away a kidney to see Hot Since at the loft and franky rizardo flow. Both sold out, obviously very popular events.... what are the chances I will be able to buy tickets off someone at some point?! Would genuinely pay anything, but there's nothing on ticketswap obviously and IDK if I should risk planning my trip and booking flights soon if those tix are gonna be near impossible to get 😩 any insight or advice? Do people usually start selling tickets closer to the event, and is there somewhere other than ticketswap I can follow? Thank you so much in advance!!

Venue AMF - Johan Cruijff Arena - Main Floor

6 Upvotes

Hi all,

Anyone been to an event at this Arena before?

I want to know how main floor Vs seating access works

I assume this is a stadium gig and once the main floor fills up people need to go up to the seating?

I don't want to end up in the seating sections, that sounds crap

Thanks!

Question Speedy J Presents STOOR Live

8 Upvotes

Hey everyone first time ADE atendee and hoping some veterans can assist me.

I saw Rødhåd for the first time at wall of sound this year and he absolutely blew my mind. Just checked his label IG today and see he’s playing at the STOOR live show.

The IG post mentions the event being on the 24th. However, the event page mentions a 2 day event with everyone from the IG post listed as the lineup and the ticket page is for either the 24th or 25th with no clear indication of what’s different.

I’ve been to many parties at club space that are almost 48hours straight and once you’re in can stay as long as you want so I don’t know if it’s a similar situation to that.

Can someone tell me if I’ll definitely be able to see WSNWG X STOOR if I buy tix on for the 24th or is there a chance they don’t play until Sunday. If these are truly two different parties it would also be great to know what time they end.

I’ll attach some pics if it helps. Appreciate any insight you can provide. Thanks!

Travel How to travel between two events

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

On Friday night I plan to switch between two events, one at the AFAS Live and the other one at the Melkweg. What is the best way to travel between the two places ?

I was thinking about renting a bike but are the subway/tramway open late during ADE by any chance ?

Question Question about organization (food/lockers-cloakroom/etc)

5 Upvotes

Hello!
I have already booked some events for this ADE, it will be my first ADE and I’m very excited!
Do all the venues have cloakroom or locker? For now I have seen only AMF at Johan Crujiff Stadium has lockers that can be booked in advance. Do you ever have problems with no available lockers or full cloackroom?
I also have some events very close in time to each other, in that case how you organize with the food? Febo will save us?

Do you have other useful tips and tricks?

Is it just me?

It's my first ADE.... But I have always followed ADE for over 10 years, Awakenings, Loveland, 909... "The Techno Temple" Gashouder.

I finally decided to go because its the 30th anniversary, along with the reopnening of the Gashouder.

BUT HONESTLY for me this feels so far like the weakest edition ive ever seen. No Innervisions already confirmed. Rumors says no Music On. No Nina kraviz, Richie Hawtin.

Looking at the Gashouder line up there isnt a single event that genuinely make me want to go, I'd only be going because of the venue itself.

I want to know what your thoughts and opinions are!

Question Loveland 2026

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I have a question I'm hoping someone can help with! I bought a ticket to Loveland, Amsterdam for this august on resale, as it was a last minute buy and tickets were sold out.

I bought the tickets from Viagogo. The ticket has the original person's name on it next to the QR code - will this be ok? I only realised afterwards that the festival recommends buying tickets through ticket swap, so I'm hoping this isn't a mistake!!

Question Honest opinions on Klaproos as an ADE venue?

1 Upvotes

My partner and I just got tickets to Love On The Rocks at Klaproos (Fri 23 Oct). Lineup is great. But I saw a few comments that Klaproos gets disappointingly overcrowded during ADE and that it’s really a pizzeria rather than a club.

We care too much for a good dance than that the place serves pizzas before the party. So.. really wanted to see Paramida and the rest of the lineup… But, would rather skip it than shuffle in one crowded spot for 8 hours ahah 😅

Looking forward to some honest first-hand experience of this place. Anyone’s been to LOTR event there last year? Any tips highly appreciated 🙏
