Most festival events have an age limit of 18+ (and sometimes even 21+ or 23+). These are Dutch governmental rules which state that below the age of 18 you are not allowed to enter a club.

Please double-check the promotors or venues website to be sure you can enter the event!

The Amsterdam Dance Event Foundation is the umbrella over the entire festival program however the bookings are arranged by the official ADE venue itself. We therefore recommend you to contact venues and/or promotors directly to check if they have interest and availability.

Yes, the ADE Pro Pass grants you access to all ADE official festival events.

Be aware though that there are over 500 events during ADE that you can enter with the Pro Pass wristband and that ADE cannot guarantee access. There is a limited capacity that each venue can take into account for wristband holders. This means for some of the more crowded events you have to arrive early. Once capacity is reached, we will go over in a one in-one-out policy.

The ADE Pro Pass is the perfect fit if you are planning on enjoying the combination of day and night events. If you want guaranteed access to a particular festival event, we advise you to get a single festival ticket.
