The National Cannabis Festival, an annual celebration of cannabis that attracts over 30,000 advocates, business leaders, patients, and enthusiasts to the festival grounds at the Districts’ RFK Stadium, is happening this Friday, April 19, and Saturday, April 20, with headlining performances from Thundercat and Wu-Tang Clan with Redman.
More than just a music event, the National Cannabis Festival allows visitors from all over the country to convene, celebrate, learn, and find community in cannabis.
EDUCATION
In addition to the concert, the festival features six educational pavilions allowing attendees to participate in discussions on the medicinal benefits of cannabis, learn about legislative updates from state and federal advocates, hear from farming, tech, and culture influencers, re-focus their minds with yoga sessions, and more.
LOUNGES
- LGBTQIA+ Lounge, hosted by The Washington Blade, is a place for advocates and community members to gather, network, and share experiences.
- Seniors Lounge (for NCF’s “golden buds”) and the Veterans Pavilion return to serve as retreats for our special guests from the hustle and bustle of festivities.
ACTIVATIONS
