The Sanctuary Earth Project
The Sanctuary Earth Project
From Codex to Pulse - Old wisdom meets modern science, live and in the body.
Looking for a moment of stillness? For any ADE participants looking to recharge, integrate their experiences, and reconnect with themselves before stepping back into the rhythm of the city. Immerse yourself in a 4D Spatial Sound installation, guided by a heart-opening composition by Lasse Mosegard of SonicSpheres that weaves ancient musical theory into modern sensory experience.
A space of silence, connection, and restoration. This pilot presents a state change. Limited capacity. Big vibes. Bring your curiosity!
EFM and TSEF welcome all, regardless of background, culture, or belief, inviting visitors to reconnect with themselves and others in an environment of equality and collective resonance.

About The Sanctuary Earth Foundation:
Monica van der Meulen is a visionary creator and urban wellness pioneer, and the founder of The Sanctuary Earth Foundation, science-backed “the Sanctuary Earth Project” that counter city overstimulation through spatial sound and H₂O-inspired design. She bridges archives to embodiment: from ideas encountered at the EFM to frequencies you can feel in The Sanctuary’s immersive installation. Her background spans media production, artistic direction, and the delivery of complex builds in the Netherlands and Spain turning ambitious, multidisciplinary concepts into lived experiences. Fluent in Dutch, English, French, and Spanish, Monica connects partners across culture, science, and health to design civic spaces where attention resets and coherence returns.

House with the Heads
Museum Embassy of the Free Mind is about you and your place in the world. It hosts the Bibliotheca Philosophica Hermetica, a UNESCO library collection consisting of more than 28,000 special and ancient books. In the books and pictures, you can discover everything about Hermetic philosophy, alchemy, Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, Kabbalah, mysticism, magic, astrology, tarot and more. Philosophers and free thinkers who have played a role in Amsterdam, such as Spinoza, find their place here. The museum is also home to an alchemical flower garden and a cafe.
The Embassy of the Free Mind is located in the House with the Heads on the Keizersgracht, an atmospheric historic canal house built in 1622.

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.
