Paco Osuna NOW HERE ADE

After a frenetic summer spanning Ibiza, Tenerife, and New York, Spanish techno powerhouse Paco Osuna is set to bring his acclaimed NOW HERE event concept back to the Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) for the third consecutive year. This Thursday, October 23, 2025, Osuna will take over Amsterdam’s IJLAND venue in collaboration with local promoter Sky Experience, promising a night of boundless underground music across two distinct stages. The event runs from 23:30 to 06:00 at IJLAND – a hidden gem on the banks of the IJ river – and builds on the momentum of Osuna’s sold-out showcases in previous years.

Two Stages of Underground Sound at IJLAND

Staying true to its fresh, underground spirit, NOW HERE ADE will feature two stages under one roof, each with its own vibe. The Main Stage will be helmed by Paco Osuna himself, joined by several of the artists who lit up his summer residency at Hï Ibiza. Techno icon Nicole Moudaber, dynamic talent Melanie Ribbe, and Argentine DJ Ariel Rodz are all on the bill, alongside a Special Guest (yet to be revealed) to round out the main room lineup.

Meanwhile, in an exciting twist, the second room will spotlight Unlocked – Melanie Ribbe’s own minimal-tech concept – bringing a different flavor to the night. Ribbe will curate this stage, featuring Chris di Perri, Merissa Mahilla b2b LULO, and Paco Osuna himself returning for a special minimal set as an unannounced guest. This dual-stage format, first tried at an Off Sonar event in Barcelona earlier this year, proved that two distinct sounds can complement each other beautifully. The team “decided to join forces again and design two rooms with distinct musical identities” at ADE after seeing the outstanding response to the Now Here + Unlocked pairing.

A Personal Vision in the Spotlight

For Paco Osuna NOW HERE ADE  is far more than just another party – it’s the most personal and ambitious project of his 31-year career. “Now, this is my most personal, ambitious, and exciting project yet. In my 31-year career, it’s the chapter that excites me the most — and one I enjoy the most,” Osuna says of the concept. The name “Now Here” itself reflects his philosophy of living fully in the present moment, which has defined the ethos of these events. When Osuna is given the freedom to play on his own terms, everything flows naturally on stage, and the crowd can feel that energy too.

Having Amsterdam Dance Event on the calendar is especially meaningful for Osuna. ADE week draws the world’s leading promoters and electronic music fans to the city, making it a can’t-miss occasion for the Now Here brand. Year after year the ADE editions have been met with incredible responses – previous Now Here showcases at ADE all sold out – but for Osuna, the real triumph is the connection he cultivates with the crowd through music. “ADE is a key date for the brand… Year after year, the response has been incredible, every edition has sold out, but what truly matters is connecting with our crowd through music and the way we envision a party,” he explains in reflecting on the journey so far.

Global Expansion and What’s Next

The NOW HERE journey continues to gain momentum on a global scale. Fresh off its annual blowout at New York’s Knockdown Center and an unforgettable season in Ibiza, the brand is extending its footprint to new cities. After the Amsterdam showcase, Osuna’s concept is set to touchdown in Madrid and Liverpool, before making its way across the Atlantic to Rosario and Buenos Aires in Argentina, as well as Cali and Medellín in Colombia. Each of these upcoming events will carry the same driving philosophy – prioritizing quality music and an intimate, immersive atmosphere where the present moment is all that matters.

With such a strong lineup and the passion of Paco Osuna behind it, NOW HERE ADE is poised to be one of the week’s standout nights at Amsterdam Dance Event. Energy levels are expected to run high, and tickets are already in high demand (past editions have proven quick sell-outs). For fans of cutting-edge house and techno, this Thursday night gathering at IJLAND promises to deliver an ADE experience now here and unlike anywhere else.

Tickets: Final release tickets are on sale via the ADE website and Sky Experience’s channels– but act fast if you want to be part of this one-night-only celebration of pure club culture.
