The Milestone
A State of Trance reached episode 1300 with its ADE 2026 Special, broadcast on 22 October 2026 during Amsterdam Dance Event week. According to the tracklist posted by TranceAttack, the episode is credited to “Armin van Buuren & Guests,” following the show’s long-running tradition of a packed, multi-artist ADE edition each year — the previous ADE special, numbered 1195, aired in October 2024.
Guest Sections
The episode is split into sections by guest, rather than a single continuous Armin set. Names in the tracklist include Sarah de Warren, Giorgia Angiuli, John O’Callaghan, Protoculture, The Rocketman, Factor B, Space 92, Daxson, Ben Gold, Mees Salomé, Marsh, Hannah Laing, Miss Monique, Mauro Picotto, MORTEN, Cosmic Gate, Ben Nicky, Joris Voorn and Billy Gillies, alongside Armin’s own sections (including a “Future Favorite” segment and the “Service For Dreamers” segment with Andrew Rayel).

Live @ Armada Club, Live @ ASOT Radio
The tracklist marks out two distinct live segments — “Live @ Armada Club” and “Live @ ASOT Radio” — plus a three-way back-to-back between Armin van Buuren, Ruben de Ronde and SUPERSTRINGS. TranceAttack’s page does not name a streaming link or venue for the broadcast, so check Armin’s own channels for the full episode.
A First Play: the ASOT 2027 Anthem
The “Tune of the Week” slot is listed as “Armin van Buuren — ASOT 2027 Anthem ID” — an early, unidentified preview of next year’s A State of Trance anthem. The episode also runs a “Last 3 Tune Of The Year Winners” section, revisiting recent listener-voted anthems.
On Fabricated Tracklists
Full fan-transcribed ADE special tracklists often run past 150 entries and include unidentified (“ID”) tracks and the odd duplicate, so we are not reproducing the full list here — see TranceAttack’s tracklist for that level of detail. We previously removed a set of fabricated setlist pages from this site and only publish tracklist information we can trace to a real, cited source.
A Listener’s Note
Episode numbers this high are a reminder of just how long A State of Trance has been running weekly — and an ADE special with this many guest sections is as close as the radio show gets to a festival lineup of its own.
