Getting to the nitty gritty of unusual and off-the-wall places when the mighty Amsterdam Dance Event 2022 edition takes over hundreds of venues is like finding a needle in a haystack. 

Good thing this is your lucky day and we are here to guide you through ADE festival’s 2022 edition. Navigating through Amsterdam festival’s quirky venues is easier when we already know that Faralda Crane Hotel is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and raving in a greenhouse becomes a reality at Noorderlicht.

You can heal all wounds caused by capitalism’s trauma once you party at De Waalse Kerk – Dutch for The Walloon Church – in this Amsterdam Dance Event 2022 edition. The central Amsterdam landmark strikes a good balance between traditional and modern, as it preserves its 15th-century exterior and features necessary changes to host contemporary affairs. 

Half Protestant church, half cultural center, the ADE venue is an artistic meeting place where intimate performances and events transpire. Picture this quirky combo – stained glass windows illuminated by bright lights with techno beats playing in the background.

An eco-lodge in essence, The Unbound is a breathtaking boutique hotel in west Amsterdam, giving its mainstream counterparts a run for their money.

The Unbound offers a panorama of green horizons in a dimly lit setting, harmonizing with its farm-to-table meals. The bungalow-like rooms are spread sporadically throughout the land. Earthy, rustic, and homey is how we’d define this ADE 2022 venue.

The 17th-century Amsterdam former church and hotbed for cultural gatherings is a sight to behold and an ADE 2022 venue for the books.

Its architecturally impressive domed ceiling, large glass windows, and uniquely designed organ add a layer of grandeur to the rather traditional decor. Conveniently located in the center of Amsterdam, De Koepelkerk will be the go-to shelter for over 500 ADE festival-goers.

If that’s what Solange meant when she sang Cranes In The Sky, we can get behind it. Faralda Crane Hotel is a peculiar but fitting choice for an Amsterdam Dance Event 2022 venue because it is as off-the-wall as it can get.

The exclusive and invite-only spot is on NDSM, a former harbor wharf in north Amsterdam, 50 meters above ground level. It’s an intimate and unequaled festival venue, so make sure to put it high on your list.
