ADE x Alpine
During ADE 2026, Alpine and the Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) joined forces to ensure that everyone can party safely. As ADE's hearing protection partner, Alpine launched a unique limited edition of the Alpine Tune earplugs, specially created for everyone who wants to get the absolute most out of ADE, without risking hearing damage.
The Alpine ADE Tune is a striking party earplug with the ADE logo. Dutch Design in top form: designed in the Netherlands, built for serious sound protection, with style and attention to detail to match.
