What is the 420 Expo?
About Us
Featuring over 100 vendors, celebrity appearances, live music and stage acts, educational seminars and panels, a full VIP program and nightly VIP after parties, and best of all, a dedicated outdoor smoking area filled with food trucks, music, and games, the 420 Expo is open to the public for a three-day celebration of cannabis.
The 420 Expo does have a strict 21+ policy. That said, whether you like to wake and bake, consider yourself a casual user or a cannabis connoisseur, want to learn more about cannabis and CBD, or just want to check out some dope vendors, eat some good food and listen to some great music, the 420 Expo’s got you covered for a fun weekend of all things related to weed.
Taking place over three days, the 420 Expo was born, like all great ideas, under a cloud of smoke. You name it… When it comes to cannabis, we’ve thought of it!
First, is our convention floor that’s around 100,000 square feet or so. There you can check out our 100+ exhibitors. Learn more about the latest strains, products, pick up some accessories, T-shirts, make travel plans, grab some munchies to take home, or who the hell knows what else you’ll find. Trust us, there’s sure to be something for everyone!
Want some entertainment? We’ve got that, too! Our massive entertainment stage will feature a crazy schedule of musical acts, dancers, comics, and interactive games just to name a few. If you’re more of a studious stoner, catch one of our many seminars featuring some of the top educators and experts within the cannabis community and industry. We also have contests, demos, and other exclusive things to chill with.
Looking to meet some of your favorite cannabis-friendly stars, and take some photos with them? We’ll have celebrity meet and greets, and maybe even a smoking sesh with your faves. And let’s not forget this show will have some of the finest people watching on the East Coast.
Now if you really want to check out the 420 Expo in grand fashion, get yourself one of our VIP tickets. You’ll get a dope custom 420 Expo drawstring bag and T-shirt, discounts to exhibitors and sponsors that’ll save you some green (maybe on your green!), access to the VIP Lounge and Viewing Area, and FREE entry to any Official 420 Expo VIP After Parties.
All-in-all, the 420 Expo is an interactive cannabis event you can explore ’til your little, very stoned, heart is content. The 420 Expo is truly one of a kind.
