Colorado 4/20 Event History & 2018 Opportunities
Colorado has a history of 420 Celebrations and Events. The University of Colorado Boulder smoke out is notorious. When the UC smoke out was banned in 2012 people headed to Denver for the 420 Rally at the Civic Center. Denver 420 Rally has been plagued with issues ranging from shots fired to trash pick-up. The University of Colorado Boulder reopened its’ campus for April 20 in 2015. Denver’s 420 Rally is under new management for 2018.
2013 HIGH TIMES held the first US Cannabis Cup in Denver after adult use legalized in 2012. The city had already held two Medical Cannabis Cups. 111,100 tickets were sold for the 2015 Cannabis Cup, out growing the venue. HIGH TIMES had difficulties finding a venue to accommodate the estimated 200,000 attendees for the 2016 Cup. Denver decided not to issue the organizers permits. With 4/20 rapidly approaching organizers decided to move the Cup to Pueblo. Venue and permit delays caused the organizers to cancel the Colorado Cannabis Cup. 2015 was Denver’s last HIGH TIMES Cannabis Cup.
The premiere 420 Event of 2018, 420 Fest & Tattoo Art Expo is happening in Colorado Springs. The Altered Reality Event Center at 3960 Palmer Park Blvd offers 40,000 square feet of in doors exhibitor space.
