Malugi
Wed 21 · 17:00 · Paradiso · Amsterdam
During ADE 2026, German DJ MALUGI will be coming to Paradiso for a DJ set lasting a full five hours. Driven by energetic club tracks and just the right amount of charisma, MALUGI has carved out a niche for himself in the fast-paced, UK-influenced house scene. The Berlin-based DJ, with his mischievous smile and penguin-like moves, is also known as ‘The Happiest Man in Dance Music’. His DJing style and infectious energy have proven to be a formula that has made him a household name and earned him the BBC Radio 1 Future Star 2025 award. This has taken him to venues such as Panorama Bar, Warehouse Project, Amnesia Ibiza and Awakenings.
Hernan Cattaneo b2b Nick Warren 6hrs
Wed 21 · 20:00 · WestWeelde · Amsterdam
Watt events invites two of their dearest friends and inspirators. There are artists who define a moment and there are artists who quietly shape an entire culture over decades. Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren belong firmly to the latter. For ADE Wednesday we bring them together for a rare and extended 6-hour back-to-back set, the way this music was always intended to be experienced. Both of them, through their work on Sudbeat, The Soundgarden and their legacy with Global Underground, have shaped a deeper, more timeless interpretation of electronic music that continues to resonate with those who listen beyond the obvious. Their approach has never been about trends or quick impact, but about patience, detail and emotional depth, a way of playing that rewards those who stay, who listen and who understand that the real moments often live in the transitions rather than the peaks. For us, this goes far beyond just another ADE booking. The very first Watt event was built around Hernan Cattaneo and his Sudbeat label, followed shortly after by an ADE party where he and Nick Warren already shared the decks. In many ways, their music helped shape the foundation of what Watt Events has become; a direction rooted in storytelling, long-form sets and a deeper connection to the dancefloor. To have them return now, side by side, for a 6-hour set during ADE already completes our dream line up of the week (and its just night 1!) Expect a night that unfolds gradually. No rush, no shortcuts with two artists who know exactly how to read a room, building something that evolves hour by hour, moving through warmth, tension, groove and emotion with a level of control that only comes from decades behind the decks. This is not about a single highlight, but about the full arc of the experience. From the first record to the last, be there. Tickets are now available, and this show will sell out in advance.
