The Event at a Glance
Amsterdam Trance Event is a daytime trance party at Amsterdam Dance Event 2026: Saturday 24 October, 14:30 to 21:30, at Panama (Oostelijke Handelskade 4, Amsterdam).
The ADE programme describes it as “a back-to-back trance marathon across two electrifying rooms” and a bigger, bolder follow-up to last year’s edition, which was a collaboration between Nocturnal Knights and Black Hole Recordings. According to Essence of Trance, the 2025 edition’s early-bird tickets — limited to 250 — sold out within two days, so this is worth booking ahead of time.
Lineup
The event runs back-to-back sets across two rooms. Trance History lists the pairings as follows — check the ticket page closer to the date in case of changes.
Main Room: RAM b2b Richard Durand, Alex M.O.R.P.H. b2b XiJaro & Pitch, Sean Tyas b2b Allen Watts, Talla 2XLC b2b York, Darren Porter b2b BiXX, Dan Cooper b2b Brendan Bartels, and Anunnakis.

Natalie Gioia provides live vocals.
Panama, the Venue
Panama is a club on Amsterdam’s eastern harbourfront, in a building that once generated electricity for the city’s docks. It is also hosting Luminosity’s This Is Trance! the night before, on Friday 23 October, which makes the venue one of the busiest trance addresses of ADE week.
Tickets
Tickets are on sale via the official Weeztix shop linked from the ADE programme. The page does not list prices at the time of writing. ADE’s Pro Pass covers most festival events, but entry is not guaranteed for Pro Pass holders here because capacity is limited — buy a dedicated ticket if you want to be sure of getting in.
Fitting It into Your ADE Week
Saturday 24 October is already a busy day for trance in Amsterdam, with Paul van Dyk at Melkweg, Find Your Harmony 500 and Luminosity’s ADE Rave all on the same day. Amsterdam Trance Event’s daytime slot (14:30–21:30) means it can realistically be combined with any of the evening or late-night events. See the full week in our ADE 2026 Trance Guide.
A Listener’s Note
I had not come across this one before researching ADE 2026, and a ten-DJ, two-room daytime lineup at a venue already busy with Luminosity the night before says a lot about how much trance is packed into Amsterdam that week.
