Producers, singers / songwriters can submit their music to get LIVE feedback from established artists, A&Rs, label heads, talent buyers and more.
We'll kick off with a music industry mixer followed by a fun curated network speed dating session so that even the most introverted bedroom producers can maximize their time and efforts at this event.
For the demo listening party & feedback session, we will have a wide range of artists, A&Rs, label owners, curators, and agents come participate in giving you feedback on your tracks. Tracks must be pre-submitted to: [email protected] along with an RSVP.
Limited tracks will be selected. If you are submitted a track, we suggest artists get their demo priority ticket ASAP.

Since its inception in March 2015, Neon Owl has covered everything, from sharing stories to showcasing talent, to sparking meaningful conversations while supporting charities worldwide. In late 2017, Neon Owl also launched Open Door Sessions, a series of events curated to bring the music community together while helping artists get discovered, heard, and signed. Since then, Open Door Sessions has expanded to cities like San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Las Vegas, Denver, and Atlanta, as well as holding a steady presence in the virtual space spanning its impact for artists and creatives around the world. Neon Owl has also partnered with festivals like Groove Cruise and clubs across the states to bring the community together to connect, create, and collaborate.
Back in October 2022, we launched The Mastermind : an artist development program tailored towards artists serious about taking it to the next level. We have had artists like Habstrakt, BIJOU, Trivecta, Blanke, MaRLo, Andrew Rayel, Blastoyz, Gem & Tauri, Haliene, GENIX, Sacha Robotti, Gene Farris, BEAUZ, Nostalgix, Linney, and many more to share their knowledge with aspiring artists. We've also had brands like Groove Cruise, Northern Nights, Create Music Group, Brownies & Lemonade, Space Yacht, Dim Mak, Anjunabeats, Insomniac, Billboard Dance, Ultra Publishing, 1015 Folsom and The Midway to name a few participate in these series of events since Open Door Sessions' inception nearly seven years ago.Countless tracks have been signed through these events, and many bookings for artists, including some artists' first club and festival gigs. You can usually expect some form of philanthropic component to most events curated by Neon Owl, such as raising money for causes ranging from animal rescues, mental health awareness, and children in need to other important social issues happening around the world. As Neon Owl nears its ten-year mark this upcoming March 2025, it has established itself as an inclusive community focused on bringing the music community closer while continuing to create a significant impact in and outside the music industry.

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.
