Martin Garrix’s STMPD RCRDS Hosts Secret Airport Rave at Schiphol
Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) is renowned for transforming every corner of the city into a vibrant dance floor, utilizing everything from historic churches and theaters to industrial landmarks. This year, Martin Garrix and his team are pushing that creative boundary even further by hosting an exclusive event at the very gateway to the Netherlands. STMPD RCRDS has officially partnered with Amsterdam Airport Schiphol to host a secret-location pop-up rave directly inside the international terminal on Wednesday, October 21, from 8:00 PM to 11:00 PM. This intimate session promises to greet international dance music fans with high-energy beats the moment they touch down.
STMPD Heavy Hitters on Deck
While Martin Garrix is reserving his massive, arena-scale production for the following evening, he has curated a lineup of his label’s most reliable floor-fillers to handle the airport festivities. The lineup features STMPD mainstays Julian Jordan and Brooks, alongside the rising French duo Citadelle and the emerging talent Nova Blue. Jordan and Brooks, known for their signature bouncy, electro-tinged house sound, are perfectly suited to test the acoustics of an airport terminal. Citadelle and Nova Blue will round out the three-hour event with their own distinct, deep-groove atmospheres.
Part of a Massive 10th-Year Celebration
This unique stunt arrives during a milestone year for the imprint. STMPD RCRDS has been celebrating its 10th anniversary throughout 2026 with a commemorative world tour, hitting sold-out venues across the United States, Canada, Japan, and Brazil. The secret Schiphol pop-up serves as an explosive prelude to the label’s main ADE showcase, a massive takeover at AFAS Live on Thursday, October 22, which will feature performances by Garrix, DubVision, Third Party, and Matisse & Sadko.
How to Get In
Due to the security requirements of an active international airport, capacity for this event is strictly limited. Access details and invitations are being distributed exclusively through STMPD RCRDS and Schiphol’s official social channels leading up to the event. For those flying into Amsterdam this week, the label advises keeping notifications active—you might just walk off your flight and straight into a world-class rave.
