Given the uncertain state of the law, the decision does not come without risks. Let’s hear how it played out in real time. Legal & logistical considerations when incorporating cannabis into your festival Permitting, ticketing, accepting funds, and where cannabis use and/or sampling can occur are all front and center when making the decision to bring cannabis into your festival. Our experts dissect and lay out the steps necessary to take in establishing a “risk- proof” cannabis event. Sponsorship - Show me the CANNABIS Money! The sponsorship money is flowing into the cannabis world, but for events there are many complicating factors: competing sponsors, how to receive sponsorship dollars, appropriate marketing, compliant activations and so much more… What do the Brands want from you? We assemble the top cannabis brands to give you the 411 on 420 sponsorships. You won’t want to miss this!
