Amsterdam Open Air (Amsterdam, Netherlands) 2025

About

On June 7–8, 2025, Amsterdam Open Air returns to Gaasperpark for another radiant weekend of rhythm, culture, and open-minded celebration. As one of the city’s most spirited music festival, AOA brings together a colorful mosaic of sounds and people, transforming a peaceful park into a pulsating playground of music and movement.

The lineup this year reads like a love letter to eclectic taste. Over 50 performers—spanning established names and rising voices—will take over the festival’s thoughtfully curated stages. Expect the slick house stylings of Max Dean, the magnetic chemistry of Locklead B2B Benny Rodrigues, and deep, percussive journeys from artists like Philou Louzolo and Kurashi Soundsystem. Dutch hip-hop royalty Frenna and Mula B, along with high-octane DJ duos like Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano, will keep the energy high and the crowds moving.

Each stage brings a world of its own: from the bold beats of Encore Soundsystem ft. Acid! to the tropical vibes of Fiesta Macumba and the sultry grooves of Vunzige Deuntjes. Unique B2B pairings—Marsolo with Lola Palmer, Paul Mond with Bronka, Tom Push and Xpression—promise surprise moments and genre-bending sets that blur the lines between house, techno, Afro, Latin, and hip-hop.

AOA’s signature is more than just music—it’s an entire experience. Think sunlit dancing under leafy canopies, canalside strolls between stages, spontaneous singalongs at the RnB karaoke corner with Irwan & Rico Greene, and unexpected gems from acts like Poke, Young Pulse, and Kaya Imani. With inventive food trucks, vibrant fashion, and art scattered throughout the grounds, the festival invites full expression, relaxation, and connection.

In a city known for its freedom and creativity, Amsterdam Open Air captures the very essence of summer. Whether you come for the music, the atmosphere, or the community, this year’s edition is set to be a dreamy, two-day escape into sound and soul.
