-- The third annual 420 Expo returns to the New Jersey
Convention and Exposition Center, Sept.
13-15, 2024, with guest of honor B-Real, lead rapper of the
multi-platinum hip-hop group Cypress Hill. Presented by Wakit
Grinders, the B.Y.O.C. (bring your own cannabis) public event
series in Edison will bring
together more than 15,000 cannabis enthusiasts over the age of 21
for three days of special entertainment and guest appearances,
seminars and panel discussions, contests, food trucks, live music,
and giveaways, along with a variety of vendors from across the
country. Purchase tickets now for general admission, VIP access,
and bucket list smoke sessions featuring B-Real at

"We are proudly celebrating all things
cannabis at one of the fastest growing canna-conference events on
the Northeast Coast," says Dan
Davis, director of operations at Three Expo Events and
co-creator of the 420 Expo.
As a precursor to the three-day event, licensed cultivators
throughout the Garden State can now enter the first-of-its-kind
"420 Expo Cannabis Cup" until Sunday, July
28, 2024. Licensed cultivators can apply to compete at
https://420expocup.com.
420 Expo Cannabis Cup entries must be sent through METRC to the
licensed New Jersey dispensaries
retailing judge's kits, with all necessary test results affixed to
each unit and retail packaging intended for sale. With judging open
to the public, categories include Indica, Sativa, Hybrid,
Non-Infused Prerolls, Infused Prerolls, and Cartridges. Each
judge's kit includes one free general admission ticket. Competitors
are also encouraged to register to be exhibitors at the 420 Expo.
The list of dispensaries selling judge's kits to cannabis consumers
and the dates of availability for these kits and judging will be
available in the coming weeks.
"This is a great opportunity for new cultivators to get their
products in the hands of cannabis connoisseurs and those curious
about the cannabis industry," says Bobby Nuggz of High End Events.
"Allowing the public to judge entries adds another layer of depth
to a quickly evolving market. I'm also very excited to work with
the Three Expo Events team to program over 30 interactive seminars
for ticket-holders. Roundtables and discussions anchored in
cannabis narratives will focus on topics such as choosing the right
strains, legal expungement, cannabis to help addiction and
recovery, investments, cooking with cannabis, and travel, among
others. Crowned champions of the '420 Expo Cannabis Cup' will also
be featured in a special thought leadership seminar session."
The 420 Expo, the "Ultimate Smoke Sesh," will be open
Friday, Sept. 13, from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m.; Saturday, Sept. 14, from 12 p.m. to 9 p.m.; and Sunday, Sept. 15, from 12
p.m. to 6 p.m. B-Real is scheduled to be onsite Friday, Sept. 13, and Saturday, Sept. 14, for a one-of-a-kind meet and
greet experience featuring photo ops, autographs, and more. The 420
Expo will also feature an exhibition hall with more than 100
cannabis-related vendors, including dispensaries, CBD businesses
and accessories, food and beverages, clothing and apparel, jewelry,
art, along with direct access to nonprofits and advocacy groups,
legal advice for record expungements, and cannabis industry
employment opportunities.
"The 420 Expo is a cannabis lover's dream come true!" says J.
Handy, co-creator of the 420 Expo and director at Three Expo
Events, the tradeshow production company for the signature event
series. "Cypress Hill has shifted culture for more than 30 years
and championed cannabis before it was trendy. The band still
performs their hit records to sold-out crowds around the world, and
the legendary frontman B-Real is heavily involved in cannabis
dispensaries and other related businesses. His 'The Smokebox'
podcast is perfect for your daily dose of industry news. It's a
party, and we're excited to have him join attendees for the
ultimate smoke sesh!"
Onsite sales, gifting, or distribution of any sort of marijuana
or THC is not permitted at the event. In accordance with
New Jersey state and local laws,
attendees will be able to legally consume their own stash in a
dedicated outdoor consumption area.
"We are proudly celebrating all things cannabis at one of the
fastest growing canna-conference events on the Northeast Coast,"
says Dan Davis, director of
operations at Three Expo Events and co-creator of the 420 Expo.
"Just two short years ago, the Garden State legalized adult-use
cannabis, and recently the U.S. Department of Justice recommended
that marijuana be rescheduled from a Schedule I to the less tightly
regulated Schedule III. Whether a canna-connoisseur or someone
curious about the benefits of marijuana, all attendees will have
the opportunity to learn more about the booming industry with a
full slate of programming at the expo's seminars spotlighting a
variety of subjects that include networking in cannabis, medical
marijuana, social equity, legal rights, cooking with cannabis, and
more."
