Revelry 2024 was another successful #cannabis event for New York by ON THE REVEL. It was an impactful and exciting 2 days of seeing brands, community, artists, and more show up and come together for the culture. Day 1 was a B2B-focused #cannabisindustry-only event, known as the Buyers’ Club. This was where serious industry players were able to connect with New York licensed retailers, cultivators, processors, and brands alike. We even got to meet basketball legend Carmelo Anthony, who launched a cannabis brand and agency earlier this year??? Day 2 was for the #cannabiscommunity, where a festival was held for the general public to attend filled with consumers and cultural tastemakers. There were musical performances (Joey Bada$$, Kota the Friend, and Odalays), iconic speakers like Angela Yee, panelists, and more while being able to discover all the various cannabis brands of New York directly ?? As proud title sponsors of the event once again this year, we can’t wait for the next one ??

We had the privilege of attending Last Prisoner Project’s Journey to Justice Inaugural Gala in New York City, and the night was unforgettable. It featured powerful performances by Damian and Stephen Marley, along with powerful speeches from individuals like Michael Thompson and Richard Delisi - both of whom have lived through the impact of unjust cannabis laws. The night featured stations where attendees could write letters to state officials, along with displays of memorabilia from those still serving time for cannabis offenses. It was a night of reflection, action, and hope, reminding us that there’s still work to be done. #cannabiscommunity #cannabisevents #cannabis?
