180 was inspired by the jungle. When acclaimed film director Francis Ford Coppola experienced production challenges while making Apocalypse Now in the Cambodian jungle, he uttered these famous words: “Whenever you get into trouble, keep going. Do a 180 degree turn. Turn the situation halfway round. Don’t look for the secure solution. Don’t pull back from the passion. Turn it on full force.” These words gave us our name and have become our mantra for the past 20 years. So...we invite you to step into the 180 jungle. Immerse yourself in the natural habitat of an award-winning global agency. Spot 180’ers in the wild. Experience the latest in creative innovation. Come with us on an advertising safari into the world as it could be.
About us:
180 exists to create The World As It Could Be. It operates as a unique global ecosystem with major hubs in Amsterdam, LA and New York, and specialist hubs in Tokyo and Paris. 300 world class professionals all committed to radical collaboration and the belief that there is nothing more powerful than a fresh perspective. Dedicated to creating ideas that have a positive impact on our clients, our people and society.
And we’ve been doing it for a while. 20 years. And counting. Delivering end-to-end creativity across advertising and content, data and insights, brand strategy, digital innovation, consultancy and design. Working with the brands, people and partners who choose to see the world just like us. Not as it is. But as it could be.
51North will redefine the meaning of silent but deadly with their upstairs silent disco at the Paradiso afterparty. We cannot guarantee that the choice of music is as stylish as their design work, but put on a set of headphones and please mind the neighbours!
THE FLOOR IS CAVA
Bubbles. What’s not to like about them? Champagne bubbles are our favorite! But don’t forget your own bubble, that harmonious echo chamber where everyone agrees with you. Or the recently exploded crypto bubble! As an innovative social media agency these are all bubbles we deal with everyday. During our ADNIGHT party THE FLOOR IS CAVA we tell you how our connections and interests shape our bubble and why we should pop it every now and then. But we also explain why the crypto bubble explosion is a blessing for the future of our internet, with your own NFT as a souvenir (bring your wallet!) In between you get to play an unforgettable game of Chinese AI Whispering and Cava-Pong and you might just find your bubble date!
About us:
We are A Bigger Circle. We connect people and brands on social media with the power of Data Driven Storytelling.
We are Accenture Song. In short: the experience agency. And to build the best experiences, you have to know what people want.
And right now, we know you don’t care about the origin of our company and you’re not wondering what our north star is. You just want to know if Accenture Song is worth a visit during Adnight (and if there’s a bar, of course). Spoiler alert: yes. And yes.
Why, you wonder? Well, we love innovation. And we’re good at it. So, we took the nerds, the weird ones, and the fixers, and we’ve put them in one of the rooms in our lovely building at the Marnixstraat. It’s amazing what free beers and pizza can do to some human beings. They came up with a theme as an excuse to go all out on their need to innovate. So, drums please, our theme for Adnight 2022 will be... ADNIGHT 2032
Nope, that’s not a typo. We’re going to let you experience what our Adnight will look like ten years from now. Remember the nerds and the weird ones we gave pizza and beer? They went all out on interactive installations, AI powered DJ’s and much, much more.
We don’t just want to entertain ourselves by coming up with these future predictions. We also want to encourage you as a brand, as a person or as someone that sneaks our security, to not only think about today or tomorrow, but to think about ten years from now as well.*
There’s no dress code because what you’re wearing today will be fashionable in ten years from now anyway. Can’t wait? Same here.
See you at the Marnixstraat on October 14th!
*Our boss wrote that to show at least one of our propositions (accept from that person who snuck security. That’s a joke. And dangerous. Don’t do it, our security guys are huge!).
At ADVENTURE CLUB between 18:00 and 23:00 we will guide through our studio with music, drinks, and snacks, but you stay for the DIGITAL DELIGHTS, where we'll be serving you up a slice of life as a digital creative alongside some TASTY FILTERS to get you through the long night ahead. JOIN US at Herengracht 444/5 on the 14th of October.

During ADNIGHT, Friday October 14th, Alfred will be transformed to the greatest advertising pub in the Netherlands: ‘Vrienden van Alfred Live!’. Like ‘Vrienden van Amstel Live!’ we organize an evening full of live music, dancing, jumping, singing-along, talking, beer and snacks. Don’t expect a high end intellectual advertising exposition, we’re not so much into the Happy Few, we are the Happy Many agency.
About us:
We are Alfred International. The agency for the Happy Many. Or in other words: for the masses. Why? Because most advertisers benefit more from addressing millions of people, rather than a handful of trend setters. That is why we create ads that are entertaining and understandable. Especially for the Happy Many.
Alfred employs about sixty committed and enthusiastic people. All of us believe that great collaboration brings us further. That’s why our communication is open, honest and respectful. We continuously learn in order to improve ourselves. And oh yes, we make the best advertising for our clients (not for colleagues).
Freddy the agency is also part of our family. At Freddy we focus more on digital, PR and activation. Or as we say, the Connected Many. That way we offer our clients a broad media mix while we maintain control over the central idea.

Good food and great minds work up a sweat at Paradiso’s basement during ADNIGHT's afterparty! Crisp Creative is the in-house creative agency for Crisp, the much loved app-only supermarket. They will bring a tasty kitchen-vibe to Paradiso's basement, because what’s the unmistakably best place to be at any party? Exactly, the kitchen. That is where the most unlikely combinations of people have the most fun. It might have to do with the universal and unique combination of limited space, unlimited access to drinks and best of all: there’s food.

Our theme is dedicated to the Killed Darlings: ideas that - for whatever reason - didn't make it. Those who regularly see their precious ideas canned by clients, supervisors, and coworkers need this seminar. Such a rejection can feel like a slap in the face for the creator. We've put together a lecture to give those present the tools to deal with this disappointment.
About us:
MIX is an idea-driven agency. This means that we use creativity as an engine for ideas. Everything else comes afterward. Data, resources, channels. It's all secondary to the idea. We develop these ideas for brands that want to stir things up. That could be a brand that needs a change. But also a company with a sound business model, where advertising and branding could use a breath of fresh air.
It all starts with an idea. And when that is articulated, we look at which effect is most suitable and sufficient. Therefore, it's resource-free creation. A good idea is the only thing that really sticks with people. Everything else is noise.

Our advertising profession is rarely a dull affair – it can in fact be quite hectic. You must keep up with the zeitgeist, keep your head calm amidst inexplicable briefings and constantly figure out the logic behind the user interface of the latest social apps. It’s a taxing job and insanity is lurking, so come by and get a shot of NEEW energy.
About us:
We are NEEW. An independent creative agency with business brains. Building brands and boosting businesses through ideas that add value to people’s lives.
NEEW is a business creative agency that works with creative strategists and strategic creatives.
In a world where people are becoming more selective in what they engage with, we believe it is crucial for brands to not only advertise, but also 'actvertise'; story doing versus story telling. So next to just campaigns & ads we are the drivers of new propositions, products, services, activations, etc. Stuff that matters, that is relevant and adds value to both consumers and brands, resulting in innovation and growth.
Natwerk is an absurdly effective advertising agency that delivers market strategies and translates them into high-profile solutions. They influence the core of the problem and always achieve: more sales and/or a better margin and/or more market share. Based on this solution, they build a campaign that the target group cannot stop talking about. Products, activations, smart tools, communication concepts. They have been doing this since 2005. By not being normal, they really reach people. With advertising they are waiting for. This is how they make brands such as Lebara, Dirk van den Broek, Desperados and FEBO successful at both brand and sales level. They call it 'not normally effective'. They prove it, so choosing Natwerk is guaranteed to have an effect on turnover, margin or market share.

With all these different tools and expertises in-house, we create some pretty cool campaigns for our many clients. What else? With big ideas we make people live big experiences and feel huge emotions.
We put creativity on top. With 300 people and 25 different nationalities, we not only learn a lot from each other's backgrounds, but also from each other's cultures. Another 250 new colleagues were added in 2021 when we joined forces with THE creative agency Boomerang and some more nice people from Le Pub, an agency created in collaboration with our client Heineken. A bar for creativity.
Though based in Amsterdam, we have the world at our feet with our very own ‘Work Your World’ program. We offer everyone the opportunity to broaden their horizons by working for 6 weeks somewhere else in the world from a different Publicis office. Plus, we give creative talent from all over the world the opportunity to learn from us through our SPA (Shaping Progress Academy), a paid internship program. Pretty dope, huh?
We are often quick to criticise the artificial nature of the digital world. But what if we can use that artificiality to pay homage to the natural world? On ADNIGHT come to Reaktor Amsterdam and take a six-minute trip into FOUR SEASONS, an art installation that takes you on a sensorial, psychedelic journey across the transition of the seasons. You'll be transported into another world — no VR headset necessary.

We thought it was high time for some good fun, and it’s always a pleasure to tell people about the power and importance of sound. SOUND IS EVERYTHING. We can’t stress it enough. Feel with your gut. Not with your head.
About us:
Soundcircus is a sound studio based in Amsterdam on the Entrepotdok. We primarily do sound work for advertisers and agencies, but don’t shy away from (short) films and documentaries. We know it’s all about tone and the right direction. That’s why we’re often asked to help find the right voice for a brand. We also love composing, doing sound design, 5.1 cinema mixes, podcasts.. you name it. We take care of all of the audio for a project. We are listeners and translate wishes into spoken words, songs or sound. We always ask ourselves: “What specific sound is needed to convey this message?” Sound is often the final step in production, making us the place where it all comes together. Visuals and audio, but also everyone’s opinion. That’s why we’ll gladly think with you on projects. Also, we make a damn good coffee to talk over.
We are Kees, Manon, Michiel, Zeno and Feike.
Pour out your ideas on the latest campaigns for Defence, the police, the Tax Authority, DJI, UMC Utrecht and many more.

Because we can keep control over the complete process, from design to idea, we manage to deliver at the highest standard! The Studio Vliering Standard.

The theme of ADNIGHT at Towel Media will be “Back to the Future”. After a few years of having to miss ADNIGHT, we are again able to look ahead. We inform our guests of the developments they can expect in the coming years and discuss these developments with high-profile people from different disciplines.
In addition, the theme is reflected in the creative interpretation and styling of the evening. A futuristic 80's vibe.

At Towel we understand what makes a good video. And with experience for over 10 years we dare to say that brands have proven to be the next-generation broadcasters and publishers. We specialize in the creation and production of tailor-made branded video content, ranging from commercials, documentary, and social to always-on content.

With our own Tube club, we ensure that our videos also achieve all media goals that have been agreed on. The Tube club specializes in developing data-driven content strategies and in optimizing channels and videos to ensure that your brand gets the attention it deserves on YouTube.

The Koude Kermis
A koude kermis is the Dutch phrase for a ‘rude awakening’. And Amsterdam advertising needs one. We are all way too focused on hipsters, elite leftists and expensive mood films. But the people who watch SBS6 don’t know what an açai bowl is. They have never done a HIIT class and don’t even know what it means.
And so, at Truus we are inviting you to the real world. Come see what mainstream people think of your ads. Sanity check your creative ideas with a consumer panel of boomers from outside the big city. Or just come enjoy some beers and dancing.
About us:
Truus is an agency that makes advertising for real people. Since 2019 they have been working with approximately 40 people for brands like Netflix and KFC.
