During this year’s Amsterdam Dance Event, authorities noted tear‑gas deployments at performances held in the Gashouder and RAW Factory venues. The incidents were described as alleged attacks and have been connected to a series of recent jewellery robberies in the city.
Mixmag first reported the situation, noting that the disruptions occurred amid heightened security alerts surrounding the festival. Organisers and local police are investigating the link between the chemical attacks and the thefts, while clubs assess safety measures for upcoming nights.
