Armada Music announced that it will be participating in an 8-hour virtual cycle event on Oct. 21 for the Bridges for Music initiative at this year’s Amsterdam Dance Event.

The charity event will host some of the world’s top music executives, promoters, and other dance music figures as it aims to raise money for students and artists in underserved communities in South Africa through the non-profit partner Bridges for Music. 

Just some of the notable electronic music names and figures in the industry who will also be participating in the event include: Defected, Awakenings, Richie Hawtin, Pan-Pot, Gigee, Rebekah, Floyd Lavine, Juliet Fox, GoldFish, and Pete Tong to name a few.  The event will also be hosting guest DJ guest sets from some of South Africa’s hottest names including Themba and Lady Z as well as play host to other international guests.

The event will be streamed live on Beatport’s Twitch here or on their official webpage here from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. (CEST). The annual Bridges for Music charity cycle event has become a tradition for Bridges for Music, Beatport, and Pioneer DJ, and has become one of the focal points of the annual Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) conference each year.  For additional information on Bridges for Music, please visit their official webpage here.
