Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE), the world’s leading festival and business platform for electronic music, is proud to kick off its landmark 30 YEARS anniversary edition. To commemorate three decades of innovation and cultural impact, ADE has invited electronic music pioneer Jean-Michel Jarre as special guest of honour in this defining year, for a standout Opening Concert at AFAS Live on October 21st, an exclusive keynote interview at ADE Pro, and other appearances. ADE 2026 is set to take place October 21 - 25, 2026.




ADE 2026 marks a historic convergence in electronic music legacy; as ADE celebrates its 30-year anniversary, Jean-Michel Jarre reflects on the 50th anniversary of Oxygène. This pioneering masterwork is recognised as a lasting artistic experiment that has stood the test of time, influencing generations of artists who have found their home at ADE over the past three decades.

Jean-Michel Jarre: ADE Opening Concert at AFAS Live

As part of ADE’s Opening Concerts, Jean-Michel Jarre returns to the Netherlands for an exclusive live performance at AFAS Live, presented by MOJO and Insomniac. This immersive show translates his legacy of large-scale spectacles into a cutting-edge live experience at one of Amsterdam’s staple venues.
“Electronic music, as well as ADE, has a history, a legacy and a future. The live show at ADE is going to celebrate its 30th anniversary, but also the 50th anniversary of Oxygène. I have the ambition to keep the suspense and go from one track to another, into a different atmosphere, different stage design, mapping, giant projections and architectures of lights and videos, to share that moment that can stay in your heart and your brain for the rest of your lives - This is the reason I’m so happy to be part of this celebration in 2026.” - Jean-Michel Jarre
Beyond the live concert, Jarre’s involvement in ADE 2026 bridges the origins and future of electronic music at ADE Pro with an exclusive keynote interview, alongside more surprises. From early studio experimentation to concerts that transformed entire cityscapes into shared listening spaces, his influence runs through half a century of the culture. As an artist who has always placed technology, light, and sound at the core of his work, Jarre is set to engage with the ADE community throughout the event’s program tracks. More details are soon to follow.

1996—2026: 30 Years of Driving Electronic Music Forward

Over the past three decades, ADE has grown to become the most influential breeding ground for electronic music; building the framework that helped a new genre to be recognised worldwide as an art form and a thriving business, into what is now an immense global industry.
