Defqon.1 2025 | Launch of the Gaming Sessions
On October 17th, it's time to level up the Defqon.1 Gaming Sessions! After an incredible edition of the Gaming Sessions in the Defqon.1 Theatre, we crowned team RED as the winners of our Rocket League tourney. And while Atmozfears and his team are the current reigning champions, we've got more in store for you.
Bridging the worlds of hardstyle and gaming, we kick off our new adventure with a friendly Fall Guys tourney from 11:00 until 15:00 between Defqon.1 artists, streamers, and Warriors. Yes, you can participate in this tourney too! We have limited spots, so be sure to arrive early.
Moreover, you'll have exclusive early access to the new Kick-Off merchandise collection or win prizes in our raffles. Enjoy some sets by DJs of the 2024 team captains and, as the cherry on top, we will reveal the new team captains of the Defqon.1 Gaming Sessions of 2025.

Most festival events have an age limit of 18+ (and sometimes even 21+ or 23+). These are Dutch governmental rules which state that below the age of 18 you are not allowed to enter a club.
Please double-check the promoter's or venue's website to be sure you can access the event!
Yes, the Pro Pass grants you access to all ADE official festival events. Even if a festival event is sold out, you can still access the event with your ADE Pro Pass wristband. During ADE there are over 500 festival events and hundreds more cultural and conference events you can enter with the wristband. One thing to keep in mind is that there is a limited capacity that each venue can take into account for ADE Pro wristband holders. This means that, for some of the more crowded events, you have to arrive early to ensure attendance. Once capacity is reached, ADE Pro holders will be let into the event on a one in-one-out basis.
We dance together, so please be mindful of yourself and each other. We expect an open attitude from our visitors towards other guests, regardless of their origin, gender, sexual orientation, religion and age. If you see or experience any unwanted attention, harassment or behavior of any kind that makes you uncomfortable, please speak out and notify staff.
Please keep in mind: we love being your annual host, therefore, we would like to ask you to enjoy yourself responsibly.
ADE is proud partner of the Celebrate Safe campaign.
