DGTL Amsterdam mk.5 is coming. Just behind Amsterdam’s main railway station, the NDSM docks are being prepared to welcome a huge gathering of dancers from around the world. The hard, industrial setting of the former naval construction site will shake to the rhythm some of the best that dance music has to offer on the weekend of 15th-16th April, with an opening party on Friday 14th. Having leaked a handful of names in November, DGTL has now let the cat out of the bag, and you can check out the full lineup for their 2017 edition below.

The opening party sets the tone for the weekend, with a couple of the festival’s regulars, Âme (DJ set) and Mathew Jonson (live), on the bill.
