Audio Obscura introduced earlier this 12 months that they might be internet hosting three nights techno at a well-known Dutch jail, the Bijlmerbajes Prison, at Amsterdam Dance Event this 12 months – however only a few days away from the beginning the competition and convention, the occasions are not any extra.
The occasions firm posted at the moment on a now-cancelled occasion with Seth Troxler and Honey Dijon, initially slated for Thursday, October 18, citing issues with the venue and native authorities
Over the final couple years, we've challenged ourselves by pushing boundaries, organizing occasions in extraordinary venues throughout Amsterdam. Our principal objective has at all times been to fer the guests a novel expertise. We have been lucky sufficient to have an ideal working relationship with the progressive Amsterdam City Council, who've at all times been supportive our ventures. However, working with these venues brings on further dangers as there are tons components to contemplate that one usually wouldn't even have to consider.
Due to newly revealed points through the license utility course of past our management, we and the native authorities will not be in a position to assure the security on the Bijlmer jail anymore. Therefore we're compelled to make the extraordinarily tough choice to cancel the Bijlmer jail occasions throughout Amsterdam Dance Event.
We are totally conscious that this can be a main disappointment to everybody who has purchased tickets and was wanting ahead to rave in a jail with us. We are with you and hope everybody understands that after months exhausting work we did the whole lot in our energy to make this occur. canceling so near the precise occasion is nowhere close to how we envisioned it ourselves. We heard about this final week and have since tried to resolve the difficulty on one hand and in the meantime seek for different venues however. It turned out to be a mission not possible.
Alternative occasions with some tickets left:
Audio Obscura x Mariel Ito aka Maceo Plex at Central Station

We are discussing to advertise new Bijlmer jail occasions for later this 12 months or early 2019 when the present situations that made us cease don't apply anymore.
Much love, Audio Obscura
We can solely think about that the quantity planning and logistical particulars wanted for such an occasion – with an unbelievable venue – had been immense, and we’re unhappy to see the occasions cancelled so near the beginning ADE. We have excessive hopes for subsequent 12 months, Audio Obscura!
