The State of Marijuana
2016-09-26 - 2016-09-27 | Queen Mary, Long Beach, CA, United States
The State of Marijuana is a landmark event in Southern California that gathers influential entrepreneurs, advocates, investors and government officials across multiple focused panel discussions and business workshops. In 2015, we assembled an all star panel discussion with the authors of the MMRSA and the regulators that will expand the law into thousands of pages of regulations.
As the legal cannabis market continues to grow in all sectors across the nation, the burning discussions in and for California remains hot.
Returning for a third year, The State of Marijuana will once again bring together the major players in the cannabis political environment and the billion-dollar business. This event will provide exclusive networking and key insights into regulatory and legal issues, medical marijuana research, business strategies, and new technologies innovating the industry.

LIFT Cannabis Expo
2016-09-17 - 2016-09-18 | Vancouver Convention Centre, Vancouver, Canada
About the Lift Cannabis Expo

We set out to create a landmark event for the Canadian cannabis market with our first Lift Expo in Toronto this past May. Having sold out the show to over 130 exhibitors from across North America and Europe more than two months out, we felt we were on the right track. Now that the show has wrapped and we witnessed 10,000 excited and engaged attendees come through the doors to help make the expo Canada’s best cannabis show ever (view highlights here), we know we’re building something that Canadians want and need.
As the Canadian market continues to grow, fuelled by the federal government’s ongoing support for legalization, we’re excited to now invite you to join us in Vancouver on September 17 and 18, 2016 for our second Lift Cannabis Expo.
Vancouver has a colorful and proud history of being at the forefront of cannabis commerce, innovation, and activism not just in Canada, but the world. What’s more, the city’s recent (and unprecedented) move to regulate cannabis storefronts is once again positioning Vancouver as an innovator in sensible drug policy and industry. Add to this the federal government’s requirement to improve access to Canada’s existing world-leading medical cannabis program (an improvement which many speculate will incorporate home-growing), and opportunities will undoubtedly be very interesting and substantial come September.
The Lift Cannabis Expo is an important step in showing the world the professionalism and maturity of the expanding cannabis industry. By getting involved in Vancouver’s Lift Expo, you’ll be joining leading businesses from around the globe showcasing some of the best products and services the industry has to offer to thousands of eager and curious consumers.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity!

Canna Trade 2016
2016-09-02 - 2016-09-04 | Stadthalle Dietikon, Zurich, Switzerland
We have the pleasure to welcome you to CannaTrade, the oldest hemp fair in Europe! The history of CannaTrade started 2001, in the fair halls of BEA Expo Bern, as a result of the Swiss Hemp Days in 1999 and 2000. The following editions of CannaTrade in 2008 and 2009 were presented at the exhibition halls of Basel. Caused by the hemp related political situation, we decided to organize the fair CannaTrade in a two-years-rhythm. Since 2012, we do this successfully, at Stadthalle Dietikon/Zurich.
The current turn of political events, especial in the USA, raises hope again for a soon (?!) ending of the repression and thereby a new chance for CannaTrade to bloom like in “good old times”… It stays exiting, anyway! For now, we wish you a wonderful time at the up-coming international hemp fair CannaTrade, from the 2nd to the 4th of September 2016, in Dietikon/Zurich.

All information about signing up as an exhibitor or business visitor you can find here, and tickets (for visitors) you can get from now on here: www.starticket.ch

Seattle HempFest 2016
2016-08-19 - 2016-08-21 | Centennial Park, Myrtle Edwards Park, Olympic Sculpture Park, Seattle, WA, United States
Seattle HEMPFEST, the undisputed King of Protestivals, and the largest cannabis convocation in the world.
As far as the mainstream society is concerned, the Seattle Hempfest has been one of the best kept secrets in the world. That is all about to change.
Seattle HEMPFEST, the premier flagship event of the global cannabis culture, is celebrating its 25th anniversary. Hempfest’s crown jewels of achievement include its designation as the largest annual cannabis policy reform event in the world. But that could change with a single event. What is less likely to change is the fact that the Seattle HEMPFEST is the most sophisticated and socially responsible cannabis rally in history, and perhaps the largest annual free speech event in the nation.
With a laser focus on political content and a deep commitment to community values, Seattle’s HEMPFEST event has influenced regional and national public policy while being an economic generator in its community. Seattle’s HEMPFEST event paved the way and tilled the soil for Washington State citizens to legalize cannabis before any other state.
The Seattle HEMPFEST enters its 25th year with a volunteer event staff of 1,000, and operating 6 stages of non-stop speakers and music & 400 arts, crafts, food, and informational vendors.
No other cannabis event can boast the extensive speaker’s list. Seattle’s current and former mayors have spoken from HEMPFEST’s Main Stage, along with U.S. Congressman Dana Rohrabacher, former U.S. Congressman Dennis Kucinich, former Seattle Police Chief Norm Stamper, and a cadre of notable reform movement luminaries and celebrities. Our huge Ric Smith Memorial Hemposium tent features press conferences, panel discussions, and keynote speakers during the free 3 day waterfront event.
A Seattle Special Event with traditional status, the Seattle HEMPFEST requires hundreds of pages of planning and the city granted permit is obtained after organizers work cooperatively with many city agencies and community stakeholders to guarantee that safety, health, and other community concerns are met.
We’re proud to usher in our 25th year with you!

HANFPARADE 2016
2016-08-13 | Central Train Station, Berlin, Germany
“HANF” is German for “HEMP”
The Hanfparade is the traditional and german-wide pro-Cannabis march in Germany. Every year in August we gather for the legalisation of Cannabis as resource, medicine and recreational drug.
There were 8000 to 10.000 participants from all over Germany and the world to the Hanfparade in last year. We want to top it this year so: tell your friends, bring your friends!
This years motto is “Legalization is in the air!” (Legalisierung liegt in der Luft!) We meet at 13th of August 2016, 1pm @ Central Train Station
“Washington DC smells of pot and no one cares” is the title of news from the US. This should be Germany too! Hemp – Cannabis – Marijuana – Hanf (German for Hemp) was always in the society. The principle of prohibition is the experiment which began more than 55 years ago. The normal state is usage of Cannabis in all its forms. Cannabis is a natural and renewable source for feed and food, housing, medicine and energy. All this the society needs – and Cannabis can deliver!
Hanfparade is a march and a movement to push ideas on how the legalisation of Cannabis can be done. We fight for the human right to use Cannabis as a resource, medicine and recreational drug.
