In its 20th anniversary year Awakenings will expand further during Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE), 18 thru 22 October 2017. Just like last year, five nights of Awakenings can be expected at the Gashouder on the Westergasfabriek terrain in Amsterdam. New are two day programs, on Friday October 20 and Saturday October 21. Awakenings is a fixed value of ADE, with invariably sold-out events and the best lineups in the area of techno, in all its diversity.
The recent Easter edition of Awakenings saw the successful introduction of the day program. Also during ADE organizer Monumental Productions will provide two day sessions, fully in the line of Awakenings with the best names. On Friday October 20, from 16:00-22:00 hrs, Paul Kalkbrenner will return to the Gashouder with an exclusive ADE show called Back to the Future. He will bring remixes and mashups of techno classics he grew up with himself. On Saturday October 21 from 12:00-22:00 hrs Awakenings by Day will take place. Here Bart Skils & Paul Ritch, Dimitri, DJ Rush, Danny Tanaglia & Nicole Moudaber, Paula Temple and Sam Paganini will perform.
