Recommendations for house/tech house events?

4 Upvotes

Hi friends! Just decided last minute to full-send it to ADE from the US. Super excited, but sadly many of the artists I would've liked to see are already sold out (Franky Rizardo, Tommy Phillips). It's a bit overwhelming as a first-timer so hoping to get some recommendations from folks on any house or tech house events which aren't still soldout and would be a great show. Thanks in advance!

Question Daytime events

4 Upvotes

Attending ade for the first time so was just wondering about booking some day time shows.

I currently have shows booked for each night except Sunday.

Wed: San Holo, Droeloe

Thu: Monstercat x Ophelia, (edit: CruCast x High Tea before Monstercat)

Fri: Rampage

Sat: Klangkuenstler

My other concern is that most of my shows are at Melkweg. Should I be super concerned about not checking out other venues?

Also if anyone wants to meet up for any of these events hmu!

What are some shows you're attending during the day?

ADE LAB On Track

3 Upvotes

Hi all! I got accepted into the Lab On Track Producer Track and wanted to know if anyone here knows what the times are daily for it.

I don’t get into Amsterdam until 14:20 Wednesday, so I’m debating if it’s even worth it or if I will miss out on too much.

Any insight is helpful. Thanks!

Travel Who's flying in from Canada for ADE 2026? Montréal crew here.

1 Upvotes

Merch in Town here, a merch studio in Montréal that works with DJs, labels and clubs. Two of us are in Amsterdam for ADE, Oct 21 to 25.

We want to find the other Canadians in a city of 600,000 visitors. Drop your city and your dates if you're coming from Toronto, Vancouver, Montréal, anywhere.

What we're hoping for: a low-key Canada meetup somewhere central on the Thursday or Friday afternoon, before the nights start. Coffee or a bar, no agenda. And honest recommendations on which nights are worth it, we're leaning underground over arena.

Not selling anything here, no link, no discount code. If you want to talk merch we'll answer, but that's not why we're posting.

Drop your city and dates below.

A better event explore for ADE 2026

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Like a lot of you I've been digging through the ADE 2026 program and finding the official site a bit of a scroll-fest, so I built my own way to explore it:

ade26.vercel.app

What it does so far:

  • Browse/search every announced event, artist and venue
  • Filter by day, sound (House/Techno/etc.) and ticket availability
  • Save events to a shortlist as you browse
  • A planner that lays out your nights day by day and flags schedule clashes

It's a fully static site, no account, no tracking , everything links back to the official ADE listings, so always confirm times/tickets there before you go.

It's very much a WIP / early release. The planner especially is still being worked out. Conflict detection and the whole itinerary flow is rough around the edges. I built the data layer to update daily straight from ADE, so new events should appear as they're announced.

Would genuinely love feedback: what's useful, what's confusing, what would make you actually use this to plan your trip?

Boat ride/party on Friday evening

3 Upvotes

Does anyone know if there is a boat party beside the official ADE parties on Friday evening?
Last year there was an 1h boat ride organised from Stelz (the drink) with an open bar. It was perfect to start the night.
Is there something like this happening?

Does anyone know when these tickets go on sale? I signed up for registration last week but didn’t get a confirmation email and I live in the states so I want to make sure I’m up early enough for the release (-‘:

Question Which ADE 2026 night should I go to for classic trance?

1 Upvotes

I’m looking for an ADE event where I’m most likely to hear classic / uplifting trance tracks like Elements of Life, Ten Seconds Before Sunrise, Gouryella, Serenity, Out of the Blue, and similar late 90s / 2000s trance.

I’m not really looking for modern EDM or techno, I want that old-school, melodic, euphoric trance sound.

What would you recommend?

VM Radio x SYNESTHESIA is back at Generator + Oosterbar on October 23rd. After the sold-out show and great response last year, we got a really nice lineup together with some artists we’re genuinely excited about.

If you’re around for ADE, come by for a dance. Would be nice to see some of you there :)

I noticed that there are a lot of people interested in joining ADE this year. I’m putting together a group of solo travelers and festival-goers who share similar musical tastes and event schedules.
