Dome Concerts presents: Recombination + Q&A Julius Horsthuis

During the film Recombination, the ARTIS Planetarium transforms into a giant kaleidoscope of light and form. Visual artist Julius Horsthuis spent a year and a half working on this impressive project, in which he takes you on a journey through eight enchanting worlds. Each world is enhanced with unique, specially composed music by his favourite producers.

The breathtaking landscapes and architectural dream structures you see are fractals: complex shapes created from mathematical formulas. By visualising these abstract formulas, Horsthuis opens up a universe of mesmerising beauty — from psychedelic cathedrals to mind-expanding nature scenes.

Recombination is a compelling audiovisual experience that stimulates all your senses. The original soundtrack was composed by Michael Stearns, David Levy, Max Cooper, Desert Dwellers, Ben Lukas Boysen, Temple Invisible, Ott, and others.


The film will be screened during ADE on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.

ARTIS Planetarium

Artis Zoo

Opened in 1988 to celebrate ARTIS’ 150th anniversary, the ARTIS Planetarium has been turning eyes to the cosmos for decades. Step away from the city’s buzz and dive into a breathtaking voyage across the universe. At the Planetarium, you’ll drift past stars, planets, and distant galaxies as the vastness of the cosmos unfolds all around you. From this unique perspective, you look back at Earth, our fragile home, deeply connected to all life within it. It’s not just a show, but an experience that sparks awe and reflection on our place in the infinite.

Festival FAQ

ADE Festival tickets will be sold via the festival event organizers individually. Therefore, we advise you to keep an eye on their own website/socials.

Click here to dive back into the Festival program list of 2025!

Not to worry! Make sure to contact the event (or their ticketing provider) you are visiting as soon as possible with as many details about your order; name, email address, amount of tickets, etc. Once they've recovered your order, the tickets can be resent to your email.

Need help to find your event's contact details? Message us at [email protected] and we'll be happy to help.

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 promoter's or venue's website to be sure you can access the event!

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

Be aware though that there are over 1,200 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 Pro Pass 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 full-for-now policy. The festival event organizer will decide when and if more people are allowed to go in.

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 instead.

We dance together, so please be mindful of yourself and each other. We expect an open attitude from our visitors towards other guests, regardless of their origin, gender, sexual orientation, religion and age. If you see or experience any unwanted attention, harassment or behavior of any kind that makes you uncomfortable, please speak out and notify staff.

Please keep in mind: we love being your annual host, therefore, we would like to ask you to enjoy yourself responsibly.

ADE is proud partner of the Celebrate Safe campaign.
