Ruby x Mixmag + Sound International
Mixmag, the world’s biggest, longest-running and most respected global dance music media brand, is teaming up with actor, DJ and musician Idris Elba’s Sound International label at ADE, for a celebration of the best house music from around the globe. Inspired by Elba’s uncle’s legendary 1980s London sound system of the same name, Sound International aims to spread the inclusive message of house music, while elevating upcoming talent, especially from exciting emerging and previously underserved scenes. This very special night is being realised in partnership with Ruby Hotels, whose philosophy of lean luxury and deep-rooted connection to music and culture provides the perfect stage for such a unique collaboration.
Perched on a meander in the Amstel, Ruby Emma's they greenest hotel yet. From the thermal aquifer that stores tour hot water to the smart façade that reacts to the elements to heat and cool the building, green energy runs through Emma's veins.
In the bar you'll find wind-powered gadgets and hand-wound machines, alongside a tasty menu of signature cocktails and local tipples. Drop in for drinks with friends or record a spot at one of our live music nights. When it's time for bed, each room is a haven of Lean Luxury calm, carefully designed to help you power down after a busy day.
Emma's 15 minutes on the Metro from Amsterdam Centraal, but the best way to get around is on two wheels. Explore trendy De Pijp to see the city's top sights.

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 Pro Pass grants you access to all ADE official festival events. Even if a festival event is sold out, you can still access the event with your ADE Pro Pass wristband. During ADE there are over 500 festival events and hundreds more cultural and conference events you can enter with the wristband. One thing to keep in mind is that there is a limited capacity that each venue can take into account for ADE Pro wristband holders. This means that, for some of the more crowded events, you have to arrive early to ensure attendance. Once capacity is reached, ADE Pro holders will be let into the event on a one in-one-out basis.
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.
