Jean-Michel Jarre to be ADE guest of honour

Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) will celebrate its 30th edition with Jean-Michel Jarre as guest of honour.

Jarre will play the opening concert at AFAS Live, take part in a keynote interview at ADE Pro, and appear throughout the five days events from Wednesday, October 21st to Sunday, October 25th.

Speaking about the opening concert on Wednesday, October 21st, Jarre said: "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.”

Tickets for Jean-Michel Jarre at AFAS Live will be available from Friday, March 13th via MOJO

The ADE Pro Pass is available at early bird rates starting Wednesday, March 11th.
