SAN DIEGO — American Weed Co. announced today that it is the first-ever cannabis brand to be a headline sponsor for a major U.S. music festival. The Cali Vibes 2024 festival is a three-day event (Feb. 16-18) taking place at Marina Green Park in Long Beach, California, with scheduled performances by Gwen Stefani, Ice Cube, Sublime With Rome, Wiz Khalifa, Rebelution, Stick Figure and many others.
“We’re proud to collaborate with American Weed Co. in their top sponsorship of one of America’s biggest multiday music festivals,” said Nic Adler, VP of Festivals and Co-Founder of Cali Vibes. “Their mission to uplift and support our Veterans—as well as our nation’s first responders—makes them an ideal partner. American Weed Company wants to unify and bring people together, and so does Cali Vibes.”
As a headline sponsor, the company will have several activations, including the Vibes Village Presented by American Weed Co., where attendees can roam amongst festival vendors, and learn about local and national cannabis brands and nonprofit groups. Within their main activation, there will also be a secret “military locker” where festivalgoers can duck into a speakeasy-style tattoo parlor for an elevated temporary airbrush tattoo.
“We’ve always been huge fans of Cali Vibes, so the chance to be a headline sponsor and have such a presence at the event is a real honor, “ said Ryan Brooks, American Weed Co. CEO and Co-Founder. “This event allows us to share the work we’ve been doing to destroy the stigma that still surrounds this amazing plant, along with our ongoing efforts to reform cannabis laws so there is equal—and easy—access for all.”
