Tomorrowland is heading back to Amsterdam Dance Event, and this year, it’s bringing more than just its signature festival atmosphere. From October 21 to 24, De Rode Hoed on the Keizersgracht will once again become a meeting point for the People of Tomorrow, with an immersive Expo, live broadcasts from One World Radio and a few glimpses of what’s next for the world-famous festival.
Rather than focusing on just one edition, the Tomorrowland Expo brings together different chapters of the festival’s story. Visitors can explore dedicated spaces inspired by Tomorrowland Belgium, Tomorrowland Winter, Tomorrowland Brasil and Tomorrowland Thailand, with each installation reflecting the identity and atmosphere of its respective event.
It’s an opportunity to revisit the worlds Tomorrowland has created over the years, while seeing how its vision has grown beyond Belgium and reached audiences across the globe. And with ADE bringing together the international electronic music community, there’s no better moment to look at how far the festival has come — and where it might go next.
One World Radio, live from Amsterdam
Music will be at the heart of the experience, too. One World Radio will broadcast live from De Rode Hoed on Wednesday, October 21, Thursday, October 22 and Friday, October 23, with programming starting at 12:00 each day.
The line-up of guests includes Armin van Buuren, The Bausa, Kevin de Vries, Miss Monique, Amber Broos and Kölsch, alongside more artists stopping by for interviews and short DJ sets throughout the afternoon. For those visiting the Expo, it’s a chance to catch some familiar names in a more intimate setting. For everyone tuning in from elsewhere, the broadcasts will carry a little of Amsterdam’s ADE energy far beyond the city itself.
Exclusive merch, Solo Vida and a look ahead
There’s more to explore between the installations and radio sessions. The Tomorrowland Store will offer an exclusive selection of merchandise available only at the Expo during ADE, making it a stop worth adding to the list for anyone looking to take a piece of the experience home.
Visitors can also take a break at the bar, where Solo Vida will be on the menu, while The Lab of Tomorrow will turn the focus towards innovation, new ideas and the future direction of the Tomorrowland universe.
Together, these elements make the Expo more than a retrospective. It’s a chance to experience different sides of Tomorrowland in one place, from the worlds that have already captured the imagination of festivalgoers to the ideas that could shape what comes next.
A familiar ADE meeting point
De Rode Hoed has become a familiar address for Tomorrowland during ADE, and its central location along the Keizersgracht once again provides the setting for this year’s gathering.
Amsterdam Dance Event remains one of the key dates on the global electronic music calendar, bringing artists, industry professionals and electronic music fans together from all over the world. Tomorrowland’s presence has become a regular highlight of the week, offering a space where the wider community can connect beyond the dancefloor.
This year’s Expo brings that spirit into focus, celebrating the festival’s journey so far while keeping the spotlight firmly on the music, people and ideas shaping its future.
