Rooted in Culture is a recurring programme during ADE that celebrates the cultural, social and political value of club culture. During Rooted in Culture, you will be introduced to the culture through dance workshops, panel talks and jam sessions. With a focus on BIPOC and queer communities, the programme brings together music, dance and talks to highlight the rich history and contemporary significance of underground clubs.

Rooted in Culture
The culture is essential for the House and Club scene. House culture is rooted in black history, LGBTQI+ community, underground clubs and freedom of expression. During Rooted in Culture we present club culture through movement, education and inspiration.
In the 4th edition of Rooted in Culture, we bring you food for thought and liberation of the body in collaboration with Lynnée Denise and legends of the Dutch Club Culture. For this edition we dive into the Female representation in Club Culture through stories and sounds.
Get inspired during the Housedance workshop guided by Zev, who is one of the early clubheads in the Netherlands. The workshop will be guided by the DJ's of the Chill on Tuesday collective. Followed by Lynnée Denise taking you into this topic of Female representation in House music. After the indepth session we dance, Chill on Tuesday and Leroy Rey teaming up for a B2B session where they will bring the vibes to the dancefloor.
