Pioneering soundscapes at ADE with Dolby Atmos

Tuesday, 07 October 2025
Forget everything you know about sound: Dolby is back at ADE to take you into dimensions you didn’t know existed. Unlike traditional stereo or surround sound, Dolby Atmos adds height to the audio field, letting sound move around you. As is tradition, Dolby will take over the TOBACCO Theater on ADE Thursday and Friday to create Dolby Atmos House, with free entry for all. Expect sessions from Bicep’s creative team, a morning with Apple Music and Jeff Mills, Halina Rice and Max Cooper + many more, as well as an exclusive in depth session from Don Diablo, and a special project by Armin van Buuren. Explore the immersive spaces below.
