AMF Reveal Lineup for 2026 Edition
Amsterdam’s Johan Cruijff ArenA is preparing to transform into the world’s largest nightclub once again as AMF reveals its heavy hitting roster for 2026. This year’s event is set to be a cornerstone of the 30th anniversary of the Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE), hosting 40,000 fans for a night of high octane production and global dance anthems.
The 2026 line-up balances legendary mainstays with the fresh sounds currently dominating the underground and melodic scenes. David Guetta is set to bring his ‘Monolith’ show to the arena, promising a cutting edge audiovisual experience, while trance icon Armin van Buuren returns to his home turf to perform and host a live broadcast of his Dance Department show from the venue. In a significant milestone for the event, Afrojack returns to the AMF stage for the first time since 2019. The bill also features a sophisticated melodic and techno edge with Amelie Lens, ARTBAT, and Korolova, alongside the return of Marlon Hoffstadt. To finish the night, Dutch hardstyle legends D-Block & S-te-Fan are locked in to provide a high intensity finale.
Marlon Hoffstadt shares: “When I first played AMF two years ago, it was also my very first time performing in front of such a huge crowd, which made it an unforgettable moment for me. Amsterdam has always felt like coming home, so I’m really looking forward to being back and experiencing it all over again.”
This edition carries extra weight as it coincides with 30 years of the Amsterdam Dance Event. Organisers have teased a special anniversary showcase and a unique show element designed to celebrate the milestone. Fans arriving early will also be treated to a surprise artist for the opening set, a slot traditionally reserved for a high energy start to the marathon event.
For those unable to secure a spot among the 40,000 in attendance, official partners Radio 538 and Fun Radio will be broadcasting the entire spectacle live. With more artists and specific show details expected to be announced in the coming weeks, the 2026 edition of AMF is shaping up to be one of the most diverse iterations in its history.
