The final release adds another large group of names across house, techno, trance, garage and experimental electronic music. ANNA, Carl Craig, Chris Liebing, Enrico Sangiuliano, Ferry Corsten, HoneyLuv, Interplanetary Criminal, Louie Vega, Nastia, Sebastien Léger, Young Marco and BLOND:ISH are among those confirmed, alongside hundreds of artists playing throughout the city.
That scale is a long way from where ADE began in 1996, when around 300 professional delegates attended and its nighttime events covered just three venues. Thirty years later, the event now reaches clubs, concert halls, museums, churches, record stores and cultural institutions across Amsterdam, bringing its festival and professional conference together across the same week.
ADE Pro Brings Artists And Industry Leaders Together
The ADE Pro Conference will feature artist conversations, industry sessions and discussions around the future of nightlife. Armin van Buuren joins Jean-Michel Jarre, Lady Starlight and JakoJako for Music & Machines: A Conversation Between Artists from Different Generations, while Afrojack, Mau P, Max Cooper, HoneyLuv, Sofiya Nzau, Joseph Capriati, Reinier Zonneveld, Cruel Santino and DJ Scratch are among the other names joining the conference.
Major music and technology companies will also take part through the Insider Knowledge series, with sessions involving Spotify, SoundCloud, YouTube Music, NVIDIA, Helix Records, Believe, Warner Music, Sony Music, Universal, Armada and Sziget. Elsewhere, Why Humans Still Need Dancefloors? will bring Eris Drew, Alice O’Grady and Sven Bijma together, while ADE and VibeLab will present the Nighttime Culture Index, mapping the cultural vitality of nightlife across cities around the world.
30 Years Of ADE Across Amsterdam
The anniversary edition will also introduce the 30 YEARS ADE Icon Series, bringing together 30 events that look back at electronic music’s history while also focusing on its future. Jean-Michel Jarre joins the week as Guest of Honour, marking the 50th anniversary of Oxygene with a show at AFAS Live, an exclusive ADE Pro keynote and further appearances during the event.
The series also includes Boris Acket’s EINDER installation with the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra and Elias Mazian, while Swan Lake Remixed for ADE brings the Dutch National Ballet and ISH Dance Collective together at the Gashouder. The wider Arts & Culture program will continue through museums and cultural spaces, with Slimfit, Thomas Azier, Colin Benders and Othernode among those presenting performances and new work during the week.
ADE will also look back at its own development through the 30 Years of ADE session, featuring Anna Knaup, Maria Jimenez, Richard Zijlma, Jan-Willem van de Ven, Gary Smith and moderator Dave Clarke. The discussion will trace how the event grew from 300 professional delegates and three nighttime venues in 1996 into the global electronic music gathering it has become today.
With the full program now confirmed, ADE’s 30th anniversary will bring together club nights, conference sessions, orchestral performances, installations and cultural events across five days in Amsterdam. Three decades after its first edition, the 2026 event will celebrate the people, scenes and ideas that have shaped ADE while giving a new generation of artists and industry figures their place in its next chapter.

STMPD RCRDS unveils huge 10-year anniversary lineup for ADE 2026 with Martin Garrix, R3HAB, DubVision, Third Party and more
Ten years after Martin Garrix launched STMPD RCRDS, the label is bringing its anniversary celebrations back to Amsterdam with one of its biggest events of the year. Set for October 22 during Amsterdam Dance Event, the show will take over AFAS Live and bring together artists closely connected to the label across the past decade. The lineup already includes Martin Garrix, R3HAB, DubVision, Julian Jordan, Matisse & Sadko, Third Party and more, with further names still to come.

The Artists Joining STMPD RCRDS at ADE
Across the lineup, some of STMPD RCRDS’ longest-running collaborators are returning alongside artists who have become more closely associated with the label in recent years. DubVision, Julian Jordan, Matisse & Sadko, Mesto and Justin Mylo have each released music through STMPD. They have also worked repeatedly within the wider Martin Garrix circle, making their inclusion closely tied to the label’s first decade. Third Party brings its progressive house sound to the event, while R3HAB adds another major Dutch name.
That mix continues with Merow, Vluarr, Lavern, Curbi, Citadelle, Nova Blue, Nome. and Skytech. Their music covers everything from progressive and electro house to newer club-focused releases that have become part of STMPD’s recent catalogue. The selection keeps the anniversary from focusing only on familiar names from the label’s earlier years, while maintaining those long-term connections at its centre. The poster also confirms more artists will join the lineup ahead of the AFAS Live show.
Ten Years of STMPD RCRDS Lead Back to Amsterdam
Since Martin Garrix founded STMPD RCRDS in 2016, the label has grown far beyond a home for his own releases. Over the past decade, it has worked with an expanding group of producers and established a presence at major festivals worldwide. Its own stages have appeared at Tomorrowland, Ultra, Sziget and Lollapalooza. Through years of releases, collaborations and international events, STMPD has developed from a new independent label into a recurring name across the global electronic dance music scene. ADE
The 10-year anniversary has already taken that story beyond the Netherlands. STMPD has brought its anniversary tour to the United States, Canada, Brazil and Japan before returning to its home base in Amsterdam. The AFAS Live show now brings the celebration back to the city where the label began, during Amsterdam Dance Event, with artists from across its first decade appearing on the same date. ADE
The celebration will also continue outside the main show through an official Martin Garrix & STMPD RCRDS pop-up store at art’otel Amsterdam during ADE. The pop-up will feature live DJ sets from STMPD artists, exclusive merchandise and meet-and-greets. It gives the label another presence in Amsterdam before the 10-year celebration reaches AFAS Live on October 22.
With more artists still to come, the AFAS Live show gives STMPD RCRDS a fitting way to close out a decade that has taken the label far beyond its beginnings in Amsterdam. After anniversary events across several countries, the return to ADE brings the story back to the artists, collaborations and releases behind the label’s first 10 years.
