Hey folks,

Don't know how many of you are aware of the . It has been held yearly, usually feburary or march. The organiser's (ID&T) are based in Amsterdam, and the event itself is held in Utrecht which is just 30 minutes train journey from amsterdam. It's held in the convenion center, and the event usually supports 30,000 people.

ID&T have announced the next edition of what was previously called Trance Energy, but in 2011, they are calling it "Energy | We Are The Network".

I've been going to the event for years now, and am totally addicted to it. Unfortunately, the organisers ID&T did not go about the announcement very well, and the move to change the name of the event has upset a lot of fans. People were concerned that saying there will be other genres meant that it would not longer be just trance music. Recently, they made another announcement to reassure people that it was still going to be trance, so hopefully not too many will be discouraged from going.

Anyway, I highly recommend this event for these that can afford the flights, hotels and tickets. No drugs needed, the music is good enough at this absolutely awesome party.

I know I'm going, anyone else?

I did read that the event was looking to overhaul itself by changing its name to broaden the appeal of this festival to all dance music lovers, not just to trance dudes. This was following disasterous tickets sales for the event over the last couple of years.

Actually, I have it from ID&T that they are NOT changing the event much at all, just it's name. They are even revealing the line up advance of the usual date in good faith.
