“After countless requests from the industry, we are thrilled to bring the Grow Up Conference and Expo to Edmonton for the first time. With rich cannabis history and culture, Alberta is a natural hub to host top experts to gather, learn, network and discuss how the industry moves forward,” says Randy Rowe, President, Grow Up Cannabis Conference & Expo. “With internationally renowned speakers, an all new Brand and Buyers zone, innovative workshops, expert panels, interactive demonstrations, and key networking opportunities, it will be valuable programming for those in the cannabis space.”

New for 2023, Grow Up will introduce the Brands and Buyers zone, where Licensed Producers can promote their latest brands and products directly to retail buyers. Purchasers from the largest retail stores across Canada will congregate to select products from the hottest brands by standard, micro and craft processors. No matter how big or small the brand, they will have an equal opportunity to connect and have one-on-one meetings with retailers interested in purchasing their products.

Alberta 2023 will feature the largest collection of retail and wholesale buyers in Canada – a prime time for brands to shine. Flower, concentrates, extracts, edibles, beverages and topicals will be on display and ready for purchase orders to be made.

The show’s robust programming will include hands-on cannabis workshops, master classes, a dedicated hash zone, and the popular seed exchange. In addition, Grow Up is proud to bring The Canadian Cannabis Cup to Alberta Sunday, May 28, 2023, at the Edmonton Convention Centre. The top licensed producers in cannabis flower, hash, extracts and concentrates will compete for the title of “Best in Canada” by live judging in the Grow Up Consumption Lounge in front of delegates.

With a reputation for bringing heavy-hitter keynotes and industry legends to the expo, past speakers include Jim Belushi, Ed Rosenthal, Simon Smit and the late Frenchy Cannoli. Grow Up Conference and Expo is the one-stop event for all aspects of cannabis.
