ROYA: Pop-Up Concert

Looking for an intimate live concert to kickstart your ADE evening? On October 18th at 18:00 at a cozy location, we’re hosting a special pop-up concert with ROYA, Denmark’s most buzzworthy new duo.⚡️ Join us for good music, cold beer, and a laid-back get-together with fellow music lovers.

ROYA, consisting of Line Gade and Sebastian Igens, are making waves with their electro-infused, widescreen pop that’s caught the attention of music fans and industry heavyweights alike. Their viral hit “Ain’t Just A Game” shook TikTok and Instagram, becoming an anthem for the mysterious game of love, and now their latest track “Cruise” is doing the same—garnering millions of views and likes across social media.

The duo always bring their raw, playful energy to the stage, blending house-inspired beats with euphoric pop vibes. This is the kind of low-key night where creativity and spontaneity collide, the kind of gig where you feel part of something special before the rest of the world catches on.

“📣 Are you in for a little game? By following ROYA on Spotify via the button below, you receive the stems of the instrumental and acapella versions of Cruise to create your very own Cruise. Share your creation on Instagram or TikTok with the hashtag #RoyaAmsterdam and the best creations will get the chance for an exclusive Meet & Greet on October 18. Please upload your creation before October 12 to join the game.”

Come by with friends, grab a drink, and soak up the energy. No frills, no hype—just a perfect low-key hangout for music lovers looking to discover danceable, house-inspired sounds with euphoric pop vibes.

We look forward to seeing you there!
