Afro Live
Line-up
Afro Live
Step into the highest frequency.
For one night during ADE, Afro Live takes over an intimate room in Amsterdam for a hypnotic journey through the sounds of Africa, the Caribbean and their electronic mutations.
Afrobeats, Amapiano, Afro House, Dancehall and electronic rhythms collide in a high-voltage, immersive boiler room experience, deep basslines, infectious grooves, raw energy and pure connection.
Leading the experience: the pink bunny himself, Heaven Sam aka Mr. Afro Disco. Blending hard-hitting live drums, hypnotic piano melodies and electronic textures, he turns every set into a journey where DJ culture meets live performance.
Alongside him, Don Jordy brings pure power to the dancefloor, bridging generations through a fearless mix of 2000’s Hip hop classics, new-wave Afro sounds and forward-thinking club energy.
No barriers. No distance. Just a packed intimate room, artists within reach, bodies in motion and a crowd moving as one
Festival FAQ
ADE Festival tickets are sold individually by the festival event organizers, but you’ll also be able to purchase them through the ticket links on the event pages on our website here.
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.
