Awakenings ADE 2022 wasn't a singular event, but rather a curated series of techno showcases held during the Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) in October 2022. Occupying a prominent position within the ADE landscape, Awakenings, a renowned force in the techno scene, transformed two esteemed Amsterdam venues – Gashouder and Ziggodome – into pulsating hubs for techno enthusiasts across five electrifying days (October 19th – 23rd).

The program at Gashouder featured a daily dose of techno, with the exception of Saturday, which boasted a double dose. Renowned names like Nina Kraviz, Adam Beyer with Drumcode, Amelie Lens with Exhale, and Joris Voorn with Spectrum graced the decks, ensuring a continuous flow of high-caliber techno throughout the week.

Ziggodome served as the epicenter of the Awakenings experience for the entire weekend. The opening night pulsated with the energy of Charlotte de Witte and her label KNTXT. Saturday night transformed into a unique celebration with Carl Cox hosting a special 100% Live Event, featuring himself, Reinier Zonneveld, and a host of additional artists. The much-anticipated closing night lineup remained shrouded in secrecy until the following Tuesday, further amplifying the anticipation amongst attendees.
