AMF 2025 is shaking things up like never before with a lineup that’s both legendary and unexpected.
The world’s biggest nightclub during ADE has finally dropped its full roster, and it’s packed with first-timers, comebacks, and total chaos, in the best way possible. Leading the charge is the undisputed king of trance, Armin van Buuren, who was announced earlier and will headline a night guaranteed to light up Amsterdam’s Johan Cruijff ArenA on Saturday, October 25, 2025.

But the real headline stealer? Hardwell. He’s making his long-awaited return to AMF after an eight-year hiatus. Fans know he’s no stranger to the AMF stage, he’s already smashed it five times in the past, but this one feels extra special. The buzz around his return is real, and he’s bringing the heat to match.
Just when you thought it couldn’t get more exciting, AMF added even more firepower to the 2025 edition with a jaw-dropping list of new names. We’re talking John Summit, Sara Landry, KI/KI, Miss Monique, MORTEN, Oliver Heldens, and Sub Zero Project. A lot of these artists will be hitting the AMF stage for the first time, bringing their unique sounds to a festival that’s embracing a broader spectrum of electronic music like never before.
One of the biggest surprises? The exclusive debut of AfroSalto. Yup, Afrojack and Gregor Salto are teaming up to perform a special back-to-back pre-show set under this new moniker. It’s a bold move and one that fans can only experience if they score an early access ticket. AfroSalto kicks off the night before the main madness begins, and trust, this one’s going to be unforgettable.
AMF isn’t just sticking to its EDM roots this year. The festival’s clearly on a mission to evolve, stepping beyond genre boundaries to reflect the modern sound of global electronic music. From techno to hardstyle to big room to house, this year’s lineup is all over the map, and that’s a good thing. Sara Landry and KI/KI bring some seriously heavy techno vibes, while John Summit and Miss Monique will rep the progressive and melodic side of house. Then you’ve got MORTEN and Sub Zero Project to crank things up a notch for the hard-hitting crowd.
The venue itself, Amsterdam’s Johan Cruijff ArenA, will once again transform into the world’s biggest nightclub. If you’ve been to AMF before, you already know it’s more than just a festival, it’s the ultimate party of Amsterdam Dance Event. From the jaw-dropping visuals to the pounding basslines and massive crowd energy, AMF is the place where dance music history gets written.
To keep the party going strong, AMF is continuing its partnership with major broadcasters like Fun Radio, 1LIVE, and longtime Dutch favorite Radio 538. That means more fans, more reach, and more reasons to go all in on this night.
Tickets are flying. Early bird access is already sold out, but regular phase tickets are up for grabs starting at €99 (excluding service fee). Whether you’re going for the standard experience or want to level up with VIP or VIP Premium, which includes an exclusive lounge and curated food and drinks, you better move fast. Early Access ticket holders get in earlier for that AfroSalto madness, so if you want the full ride, that’s the move.
Doors open for early access at 7:30 PM, with the exclusive pre-show kicking off at 8:00 PM. Regular access starts at 9:00 PM, and the whole thing goes till 6:00 AM. That’s nearly 10 hours of non-stop, genre-blending chaos.
Twelve years in, AMF isn’t slowing down. It’s evolving with the scene, tapping into new sounds, and creating space for both legends and next-gen stars. Whether you’re coming for Armin, vibing with Heldens, raging with Sub Zero Project, or losing your mind at AfroSalto, AMF 2025 is the one night at ADE you simply can’t miss.
