Ace is the debut studio album by Belgian dance music group Ian Van Dahl, released on 21 May 2002 by Antler-Subway Records. The album peaked at No. 7 on the UK Albums Chart, and has been certified Gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). The album title was inspired by taking the first letters of the names of each member of the group: Annemie Coenen, Christophe Chantzis and Erik Vanspauwen.

The album contains four songs that reached the top 20 of the UK Singles Chart: "Will I?" (No. 5), "Reason" (No. 8), "Try" (No. 15) and their highest-charting single, "Castles in the Sky", which reached No. 3 and spent seven weeks in the top 10 in mid-2001. "Castles in the Sky" was a moderate success in Europe, while reaching No. 91 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
