DIRTY WEEKENDER - AMSTERDAMAGE 2025
Thursday 6th March 2025 to Sunday 9th March 2025 -Amsterdam
WELCOME BACK TO DIRTY AIRWAYS
So... here we are again. After the amazing success of our first trip abroad with you crazy lot we all had so much fun we are going again.
It was potentially going to be a one off but within 30 minutes of the first party on the Friday night we just wanted to carry this on - bit of a no brainer.
Some of the text below is the same as the last event because as my grandma used to say "if it ain't broke them don't fix it"!
For our 'Second Dirty Weekender' there is STILL no better place for us than Amsterdam.
BUT... This time there will be time for Anne Frank, Tulips and Clogs! We are spacing out the events so you can have time to actually do some sightseeing. Not too much though as it's very much a weekend of Dirty Beats in some of Amsterdams finest venues.
We have had a change up and have teamed up with House is a Feeling who certainly know a thing or two about putting on parties. So expect more like minded people to join our amazing Dirty Stereo faithfuls. We have also a new bunch of venues for you. Friday we are once again back to Delux at the Escape venue and this time we are adding the Royal Room so we can have 2 rooms of House, Tech and Oldskool.
Saturday we are back on the water with an even bigger 'rave' boat which also has 2 rooms. Once the fun is over we then get back on dry land with a couple of hours for you to get your sea legs back we are off to Akhnaton for the after party action until the small hours.
Sunday is another new venue being the plush Supper Club. This is a one room venue so we can all spend the final day together sweating and swapping stories of the mayhem of the last few days.
We have a fantastic lineup for you with some firm favourites and also some newbies. It will be the same ethos though. A bunch of great DJs that we all consider as friends so we keep the amazing family vibe the parties are known for but still no Carl Cox on this one!
Where is all ended last time is where we are starting this time. Pick up your wrist bands and baddie bag and get your weekend started a day early!
For those coming on Friday...Pick up your wrist bands and baddie bag and meet your mates for a drink.
This time we have 2 rooms for you with Dirty Stereo in the Escape Room and House is a Feeling in the new Royal Room. Both rooms are part of the amazing Escape club. This will certainly kick off the weekend in the right way.
Ahoy me hearties! This year we have gone BIGGER! We have the same size boat but it now has 2 rooms which is obvs twice more the fun and twice the amount of DJs. This will once again be the 'RAVE BOAT' as it worked so well last year.
We couldn't let they day end at 8pm so we have secured 'The Other Side' for the crackon until the small hours. Expect a fresh load of DJs after you've freshened up from the boat party or just pushing through.
How good was Sunday last time? So good that quite a few of your changed your flights to get home later that night or the next day. Next time will be no different as the venue is absolutely superb.
All the crazy fun from £25 for a single event ticket to only £99 for all 5 events.
You can now split the payment into 3 easy payments by choosing the Klarna option.

So... 6th to 9th March 2024... Amsterdam... Dirty Stereo... You lot again... WHAT COULD GO WRONG? Nothing it would seem but 2025 could be a different kettle of fish. No edibles on the next one though. Lessons have been learnt! lol
The boring stuff but you need to take note...
Deposit & Payment
The £20 is non refundable as is the payment on top.
Dress Code
It's Amsterdam so wear what you want. You can get away with anything.
Flights, Hotels & Transfers
Are not included. That's all down to you. We are the fun suppliers of the events only.
Insurance
This is also down to you. Please get your own. Now we are out of the EU it's not as easy as it was if you break a leg trying to jump over a canal. So don't be silly and spend £20 or so and get covered.
Wristbands
All events will require a wristband, if you don't have the correct one on then you won't be able to join in which is a bit rubbish as that's why we are going away. Security will be on the door and won't be on the funny fags so will be vigilant.
Drugs are bad please don't do them
Talking of funny fags. There are actually rules over there. So rather than copy and pasting from the following website just pop over here and take a read: www.amsterdam.info/drugs/
Refund Policy
Refunds for any tickets purchased directly via Dirty Stereo will only be made if the event is cancelled.
Cancellation
Dirty Stereo and any related companies and / or the promoters cannot be held responsible for cancelled postponed or altered events or if an artist, act, performer or DJ cancels their performance.
THE OUTDOOR DIRTY STEREO SUMMER SOIREE
Plough & Harrow, 88 Southdown Road, Harpenden AL5 1PR
It's been a while since we threw an outdoor party. The first time being the days of 2m apart and pig pens and then RiseUp.
We had 'Come Back Party' and 'Come Back Again Party' so we could've had 'Come Back Again & Again Party' or 'Dirty Fest' but I was thinking 'The Outdoor Dirty Stereo Summer Soiree in a Dirty Way' rolled off the tongue better!
Call it what you want. It's a party in a massive pub beer garden, with very decent prices, an amazing lineup with the fun Slippers the Split VW Van thrown in for good measure.
and... that measuring stick isn't going away just yet. The pub has also allowed us to use the indoors in the daytime which is being hosted by our very good friends from Hemel, Innovate, which is headed up by Baldstew & Tiertech.
Once we finish up outside at 10pm then Dirty Stereo takeover inside for the last 3 hours with a residents afterparty.
Outdoors with Dirty Stereo
Terry Farley
Producer, remixer and obviously amazing DJ. Terry has worked with some of the absolute greats... Happy Mondays, Primal Scream, The Farm, New Order, Alison Moyet and even Michael Jackson and now... he'll be entertaining us lot.
Huck Finn
Naughty boy and best friends with Tom Sawyer who then became a fantastic DJ.
Piano and Specs
Recreating the 90’s feel of all genres of electronic music, from Piano house to Drum n Bass. Their musical influences come from many eras of dance music, the summer of love, the acid house parties, the rave scene of the early 90’s and late 90s trance.
Antz & Lordy
Thankfully their DJ'ing skills are better than their facebook profile writeup which simply states...'Playing the finest house music'.
Having seen the chaps play a few times, and have enjoyed every time, so now you can too!
Lucy Hughes
Lucy is a multi genre DJ but house music is really where her heart is. Playing everything from soulful, funky & disco to deep, progressive and tech house.
Dirty Stereo Allstars
Carl Willis, Brooksie, Kris Gowlett, Richie S, Pete Morgan
You should know by now what you are getting with us lot. What we get is spending the day together playing music we love to friends.
Indoors with Innovate
Baldstew
Stew may be follicly challenged but no way is he musically challenged. As I heard someone say recently he's the better half of the duo that is Baldstew & Tiertech. Ah!!! I remember who said it. It was Baldstew!
Tiertech
No jokes about tears of joy when listening to this one. But, if we are talking heady height then Muff is at the top Tier having graced the decks of some top establishments including the Ministy of Sound and the Blue Oyster Bar.
Slange
Not much out there in google land about Slange but what I have found are these interesting tit bits... a Gaelic toast, an alcohol-free drink, and a Norwegian word that translates to serpent or snake in English. I am of course being daft. I have seen Slange play for Innovate twice and both times have been amazed and RD also requested he play a set too so there you go RD you got your wish!
Dave Williams
Will the real Dave Williams please stand up!For those that went to Malta to catch the Dirty Stereo afterparty will know what that means. Basically a case of mistaken identity would've meant a very funny set from a chap who doesn't look anything like Dave and had never DJ'd before. The real Dave Williams is the shiz and we are well happy he is joining the party.
Matty Wells
Where has he not played? Matty has been a DJ for 35+ years and has held residencies at Turnmills, Ministry of Sound, Bora Bora, The Cross. Not only is he a fantastic DJ he's also a producer of new and original tracks.
Warren Peaty
Warren wears many hats as a DJ, Promotor and a thoroughly lovely bloke with great tune selections from many genres. Not many can do that.
So to wrap this up....
12pm-1am
Pub in Harpenden with decent drink prices and huge garden.
Booming sound system
DJs a plenty
