Pantheon Amsterdam

Wed 21 · 10:00 · Museum Ons' Lieve Heer op Solder · Amsterdam
Pantheon Amsterdam brings together contemporary art, heritage and spirituality in a unique exhibition at Museum Ons’ Lieve Heer op Solder. Eight artists are creating new altarpieces and celebrations centred on stories of faith, identity, exclusion and recognition. Pantheon Amsterdam demonstrates that these subjects are not merely historical phenomena, but contemporary themes that continue to give meaning to the lives of many people. One of these art installations is ‘ Opacity ’ by Sammie Tjon Sien Foek , also known as DJ Slimfit . During ADE, Slimfit will give three intimate performances in the museum’s clandestine church. By integrating and remixing classical music elements with live electronic composition influenced by ancestral rhythms, they reinterpret supposedly opposing liturgical ideologies. More information about the performances at this page . Pantheon Amsterdam will run from 21 October 2026 until 24 October 2027. It can be visited everyday during regular museum hours (10:00-18:00) with a museum entrance ticket.

AMW 24/5 DJ Marathon 2026

Wed 21 · 12:00 · Amsterdams Most Wanted Radio · Amsterdam
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. Event Details: Dates: 21-10-2026 – 25-10-2026 Location: AMW Headquarters (The Bunker), NDSM-Plein 86e, 1033 WB Amsterdam Entry: Free entry (Full = Full) House Rules: https://amsterdamsmostwanted.n...

AAA Events Pres. Chasing Dreams

Wed 21 · 13:00 · Royal Room · Amsterdam
XiJaro & Pitch’s Chasing Dreams comes to ADE for a charity fundraiser in support of the Norrie Disease Foundation. Beyond the music, Chasing Dreams has grown into one of trance's most community-driven platforms: a long-running podcast and livestream, a mix compilation, a record label championing emerging talent, and now its own club nights. Through various fundraising initiatives it has raised over 100.000 EUR for charity, driven by the belief that the impact of music should extend beyond the speakers. Anthony Reyers (Pitch) was born blind and faces progressive, compound hearing loss due to Norrie disease. In his words: "I'm really excited to bring Chasing Dreams to ADE for a day of trance, while raising funds for a cause that is very close to my heart. Norrie disease is the reason behind the hearing loss that will eventually bring my time behind the decks to an end. This will be Anthony’s last ADE and this one will be special as both Anthony and Xander will both be there to perform, alongside various guest DJs and vocalists throughout the event chasing their dreams. Entry is free but we encourage you to make a donation with your ticket or on the door.
