Amsterdam Music Festival – AMF returns to the Johan Cruijff ArenA during Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE), announcing global icon David Guetta as the first headliner for its 2026 edition, returning after six years.
The French superstar and number 1 DJ in the world brings his groundbreaking Monolith Show to Amsterdam on Saturday October 24th, marking a major moment for both the festival and the artist.
AMF 2026 is set to celebrate 30 years of ADE as David Guetta returns to the Johan Cruijff ArenA with his most ambitious production to date. A longstanding force within the global festival circuit and no stranger to the AMF stage, he’s back after six years. He now deepens that legacy by bringing his full-scale stadium concept, The Monolith Show, to Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE).
Set to embark on a run of monumental shows across Europe, including three consecutive sold out nights at Stade de France for 60,000 fans per night and a headline performance on Belgium’s Zeebrugge beach. The Monolith Show is already shaping up to be one of the most ambitious productions in electronic music.
At its core stands an enormous vertical LED monolith, enhanced by immersive 3D mapping and a highly technical lighting system designed to transform stadiums into fully realized audiovisual worlds. Built around Guetta’s “Future Rave” sound, the show promises a high-energy, cinematic experience on an unprecedented scale.
As AMF continues to evolve under Insomniac Europe, the addition of The Monolith Show signals a new chapter for the event, one that leans further into large scale, immersive concepts while maintaining its reputation as the world’s biggest nightclub. AMF remains a cornerstone of Amsterdam Dance Event, consistently delivering world class line-ups and cutting edge production.
With more artists still to be announced, AMF 2026 promises another dazzling edition, bringing together the biggest names in electronic music with next generation production in one of the most iconic venues in the world.
