Sensation is a Dutch indoor dance-event that is held in Amsterdam ArenA.
In 2000 and 2001, it was made up of one edition, just called Sensation, but has now been split up into two editions: Sensation Black and Sensation White. This was done to differentiate the music and feeling more than would have been possible if it was one event. Sensation Black focuses more on darker music, like Hardstyle and Hardcore, whereas Sensation White focuses more on House and Trance. Every year, Sensation also releases two singles they call the Anthem.
The first edition of Sensation in 2000, was not sold out. The media did announce it was sold out, to keep the buzz high. The event attracted 20,000 people then. In this first edition, the DJ's only used one side of the Amsterdam Arena as the stage. Later editions have the stage in the middle. This Sensation was the only one that did not have a dress code. All other editions of Sensation White were sold out, usually well in advance (usually all 40 000 tickets are sold in a few hours). Sensation Black has not been as successful but is usually either close to sold out capacity or sold out a few days before the event.
In 2005, Sensation White was also held in Belgium and Germany. In 2006, ID&T started Sensation International, an international tour, based on the simplified version which could be seen in the Amsterdam ArenA.

Within a few years we have sensations all over the world. I don't think all these editions will be broadcasted, so:
This thread is only ment for the dutch edition of Sensation(White and Black)
