AMW 24/5 DJ Marathon 2026
Thu 22 · tba · Amsterdams Most Wanted Radio · Amsterdam
We are kicking off DAY TWO with an absolute underground heavyweight: a legendary, 8-hour-long takeover by the Detroit Techno Militia crew) From the very first second, you will be swept away by the raw, uncompromising sound of the Motor City. No breaks, no mercy—just pure vinyl energy, rolling basslines, and the unmistakable industrial vibes that Detroit is famous for. This isn't just a set; it’s an 8-hour endurance test for the true heads. Make sure your laces are tied tight, and your energy levels are maxed out. This is a marathon opening that will be talked about for years to come. More info about the marathon can be found down below. For the 11th year running, AMW returns to Amsterdam Dance Event with our legendary 24/5 DJ Marathon. We are welcoming you straight into our home base: “The Bunker” at NDSM, located inside a historic UNESCO heritage site. Hidden away in the industrial edges of the shipyard, these raw premises become a sanctuary for electronic music from Wednesday through Sunday. For 125 hours straight, the outside world fades away, driven by a sound system custom-tuned to deliver a deep, exceptionally warm sound that you can feel in your chest. Inside The Bunker, the soundscape constantly evolves. The music is carefully curated to match the exact energy of the hour, shifting seamlessly from deep daytime grooves into driving, peak-time energy as the sun goes down. It is a continuous, 5-day flow where established names and upcoming talents share the decks for one reason only: their absolute love for good music and the craft of a proper set. Follow the bass to the NDSM wharf. Our doors are open, transforming the space into a heavy, unfiltered sweat box where the music never stops. Come as you are, find your spot, and become part of the AMW legacy. We dance together.

The World’s Longest Back-to-Back DJ Set hosted by Fosbury music studio
Thu 22 · tba · Fosbury & Sons · Amsterdam
Fosbury will transform its studio on Kerkstraat into a one-of-a-kind live broadcasting space, inspired by the openness and energy of New York’s The Lot Radio. Our ambition is simple: Create the longest continuous back-to-back DJ performance ever attempted. For more than 100 consecutive hours, all DJ’s in town will take over the booth. But there is one rule: Nobody ever plays alone. Every DJ joins the artist already playing, performs a two-hour back-to-back, and then hands over to the next DJ. Every hour, one artist leaves and another joins, creating an endless chain of collaborations, unexpected combinations, and once-in-a-lifetime musical moments. The entire event will be professionally livestreamed and recorded. With large windows facing Kerkstraat, the studio becomes part of the city during ADE. People walking by can watch the DJs perform from outside, while thousands more tune in from around the world. ∞ B2B isn’t just about breaking records. The entire event raises money for charity. Fans around the world can access the livestream by making a donation, turning every hour of music into real-world impact. Access is only available through charitable donations, making every ticket another contribution to the cause. A Guinness World Records attempt We’re aiming to make ∞ B2B an official Guinness World Records attempt for the longest continuous back-to-back DJ performance ever staged. If successful, ADE won’t just witness an unforgettable livestream. ADE brings together the world’s greatest electronic artists every year. ∞ B2B creates collaborations that would never normally happen. • Unexpected B2B combinations. • More than 100 hours of continuous music. • A global livestream. • Incredible content for years to come. • Money raised for charity. • An official world record attempt. One booth. 100 hours. No solo sets. One endless back-to-back. Where one DJ never stops, because another is always joining.

KI/KI - 5 Hours (Day / 1)
Thu 22 · 18:30 · Ziggo Dome · Amsterdam
Van de duistere diepten van acid techno tot de euforische highs van trance en van underground tot topspots op festivals als AMF en, samen met Job Jobse, dé show van Lowlands 2025 geven; KI/KI is meester van contrasten. Binnen korte tijd groeide KI/KI uit tot één van de populairste namen binnen de elektronische muziek, wat haar onder andere de eerste vrouwelijke winnaar van een Edison in de categorie Dance maakte. Tijdens ADE 2026 maakt KI/KI haar debuut in de Ziggo Dome met een exclusieve vijf uur durende headline show. Geen standaard set, maar een speciaal ontwikkelde show die voortbouwt op haar “slash'' productieconcept, dat eerder te zien was in een uitverkocht Roundhouse in Londen.
