Audio Obscura is set to return to the G-STAR RAWFACTORY for the final time during Amsterdam Dance Event 2026, marking the conclusion of a significant chapter for the event series. The organization will host six distinct shows across three days, running from October 22nd to 24th, featuring a mix of daytime and nighttime programming.
While this marks the end of their tenure at the G-STAR RAWFACTORY, Audio Obscura remains committed to its presence in Amsterdam. The team will continue to host events at other notable locations, including The Loft at the A’DAM Tower, as they look toward future projects in 2027.
The programming for the final run begins on Thursday with a performance by Patrick Mason b2b SPFDJ, supported by Anetha, Mischluft, and Tjade & Friends. Friday’s schedule includes Amelie Lens, who brings her EXHALE concept to the venue, followed by a late-night takeover from Bad Boombox Invites. The series concludes on the final day with WhoMadeWho’s ‘The Moment’ and a closing set by LAMMER.
Designed by renowned architect Rem Koolhaas, the G-STAR RAWFACTORY has served as a landmark venue for Audio Obscura, hosting high-profile artists such as Peggy Gou, The Martinez Brothers, Adriatique, Joseph Capriati, Dax J, Chris Stassy, Job Jobse, Mochakk, and Patrick Mason.

Jeroen Fontein, co-founder and managing director of Audio Obscura, reflected on the transition: “This marks the end of a special chapter, but emphatically not the end of Audio Obscura. During this year’s ADE, we will also host events at The Loft, and looking ahead to 2027, we are already exploring new and unexpected places where music, architecture and audiences can come together.”
The final events at the venue will extend into the early hours of October 25th at Joan Muyskenweg 39 in Amsterdam.
