Event review: Awakenings x Reinier Zonneveld Live - ADE B2B Special by day

As the last day of Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) 2023 arrived, Ziggo Dome hosted an epic event, one that will echo in our minds for years to come with Reinier Zonneveld at

the helm, dropping beats alongside other techno legends. It was one for the books indeed. The lineup? Absolute madness; Kiki Solvej, Space 92, Adam Beyer, and Nina

Kraviz joined Reinier for a back-to-back fest that flipped the script on what a day/night out in Amsterdam could be.

At 8:45 PM, Reinier owned the stage solo, and as a live vocalist jumped in, the evening became even more special. And, surprise, surprise, HI-LO joined the party for an

unexpected B2B, turning the energy up to 11. Behind the scenes, Rocco, the visionary behind Awakenings, was a supportive force, showing mad love and vibes. His energy

matched the crowd, proving that when organizers are as into it as the crowd, you get something very special.

Family was in the house too. Reinier's parents didn't just show up; they danced from the first beat to the last. Seeing them vibing out was almost as cool as the beats

themselves. Sure, there were a few hiccups. Some of us missed the early magic as Kiki Solvej, scheduled till 16:00, unexpectedly wrapped up at 15:00. A reminder that during

ADE, timing is everything.

And the music hit a pause button due to a Ziggo Dome glitch, but did the Reinier crowd care? Nope. They kept the party going, proving that tech fails are just speed bumps on

the road to a legendary night. In a nutshell, Reinier Zonneveld Live - ADE B2B Special By Day was one to remember. Reinier Zonneveld's back-to-back special was a

masterclass in unity, blending legends in a way that only Amsterdam knows how. From unexpected twists to family vibes and an unstoppable energy, Reinier Zonneveld's

continuous performance wasn't just a festival; it was a celebration of music power to unite.
