Where the electronic music scene meets art

ADE Arts & Culture plays an important role in the crossover between electronic music and other art forms . The program focuses on today's makers who find their strength in the night, the positive impact electronic music has on its makers and listeners, and broadening horizons.

Electronic music has left an imprint on many cultural phenomenons, from dance to visual art, cinema, classical music, and much more. Likewise, the importance of nightlife is seen in many people; they find a sense of fellowship, interconnection, and growth on the dance floor and take that with them beyond. ADE Arts & Culture program aims to offer a wide range of electronic music experiences that reflect the best and most creative projects currently on offer.
