Chilemúsica makes its debut at Amsterdam Dance Event 2026
From 21 to 25 October, Chilemúsica will take part in Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE), for the first time, joining one of the world’s leading gatherings for the electronic music industry. This marks a new step in Chilemúsica’s international strategy, expanding its presence across specialized circuits and broadening the range of genres represented internationally.
The mission will bring together a Chilean delegation made up of representatives from Festio, IME Chile, MVK – Mundovivo, Panal Records, Ronda Coop and Vida Música Chile, who will take part in ADE Pro, B2B meetings and a range of networking opportunities with international professionals, companies and organizations.
Founded in 1996, Amsterdam Dance Event celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2026, firmly established as a global platform for electronic music and its industry. This anniversary edition will connect three decades of history with the key issues shaping the future of the sector, from new markets and independent models to technology, innovation and cultural transformation. In this context, Chilemúsica’s first participation opens a new space for the coordinated representation of Chile’s electronic music sector and strengthens its presence in highly specialized international platforms.
ADE is also a leading example of how music can activate a city and connect culture, nightlife and tourism. Over five days, its programme unfolds across more than 300 venues throughout Amsterdam, bringing together hundreds of thousands of people around the international electronic music industry.
As part of the programme, Chilemúsica will have a Chile Meeting Point at the Business Hub, located in the Garden Room at Andaz Amsterdam, which will serve as the delegation’s daily base for meetings, coordination and networking with international professionals.
This presence will be complemented by Chilemúsica x ADE – Industry Mixer, an official networking event developed in coordination with ADE Pro, taking place on Friday 23 October, from 19:00 to 23:00 hrs, at the Atelier Room at Andaz Amsterdam. The event will bring together the Chilean delegation with international professionals and potential partners, with Chile: Terruño Sónico as host, bringing music, wine and territory together in an experience that presents a contemporary perspective on Chilean cultural identity.
With this first mission to ADE, Chilemúsica continues to expand its international reach while strengthening a strategy of diversification across specific genres and specialized circuits, creating new opportunities for collaboration, circulation and professional development for Chile’s music industry. This agenda marks a new stage of growth and positioning for Chilean cultural identity within high-impact international markets.
