Synced Amsterdam – The Afro Dance & Network Experience @ADE
Where Afro beats meets creative minds and business meets party.
Synced is the ultimate ADE event where you can let go, dance your heart out and connect with like-minded souls. Music lovers but also DJ's, music producers & event organizers; come with your crew, dive into the deep rhythms of Afro Beats, Afro House, Afro Tech, Amapiano & Dancehall and feel the energy flow from the first drink to the final beat.
More than just a party, Synced is the cultural gathering spot for creatives and lovers of Afro and Caribbean music. A space where music, style and storytelling come together in an unforgettable night of rhythm, connection and Afro-futuristic vibes.
Whether you're here to network, get inspired or simply enjoy the music — this is your night to shine at ADE.

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.
ADE is proud partner of the Celebrate Safe campaign.
