420 Activities: 15 Best Things To Do While High On This Weed Holiday

Got an open schedule for 420? Beyond consuming cannabis and enjoying your favorite strains, this stoner holiday is the perfect time to fully embrace the fact that weed’s psychoactive effects make anything you do 10x better.

Listening to music, getting lost in nature, or kicking back with video games can be easily enhanced with a good old toke. But here’s the thing.

For seasoned users, that’s an average day. If you really want to take it up a notch, we’ve included a few fun activities for some stoner-friendly festivities on the big day. Whether you’re flying solo or enjoying the best company, here are 15 fun things to do while high on 420.

Cannabis is fascinating. At its core, it offers a sensory shift that changes the way we perceive the world around us:

• Colors become more vibrant
• Creative ideas flow effortlessly
• Music reveals hidden layers of complexity

A lot of stoners specifically choose to consume cannabis before certain activities to enhance focus and connection to the present moment.

When you’re high, the past and future gently fade away, inviting you into a heightened state of mindfulness. Even ordinary tasks—washing dishes or folding laundry—transform from mundane chores into moments of peaceful engagement, reminding us that joy can be found exactly where we are.

But the present moment is just the start—keep reading for more mindful ways to celebrate your high.

For those who prefer to tap into their creative side, pick up a canvas, paint, and some brushes, and let your mind run wild. 420 painting is one of the most relaxing and fulfilling activities. Need some inspiration? Flick on Bob Ross videos and let the OG of calming paint sessions be your guide.

There’s nothing like some classic board games after a session with friends. Bonus points if you create your own 420 board game and infuse some cannabis consumption into the mix. Any combination of strategy, luck, and competition is definitely a stimulating way to spend 420.

Take advantage of the fresh air in April and head outdoors. Find trails near you and enjoy all that nature has to offer. Do it alone and bring some earbuds, or head down the trail with some friends. Just be sure you bring enough water to combat the dreaded cottonmouth feeling (dry mouth).

Instead of simply playing music, give yourself an immersive experience and watch your favorite artist’s live concert set online. Of course, live music is always best. But not everyone is lucky enough to score concert tickets on 420.

Concert and music festival videos make for some great visuals and tunes to play in the background, but you’ll often find yourself zoning into a captivating performance you can genuinely appreciate while lifted. Surround sound definitely helps.

Cooking and baking can be incredibly therapeutic, especially with a little weed in the mix. Try making that new recipe in your bookmarks for a luxury 420 dinner to satisfy those munchies. Or, take it up a notch and make some edibles to stay on-brand with the stoner holiday.

It’s perfectly fine to spend your 420 nestled under a blanket, next to a bong, playing your favorite video games. It’s genuinely one of the most fun and immersive things you can do while high. This time around, try not to go hermit mode. Invite some buds to bring their controllers for multiplayer group games, or hop on Discord to stay connected.

Whether you’re an art junkie or simply looking for a new experience, spending time at your local museum or art gallery is seriously underrated. The history, culture, and mere talent within those walls are fascinating, stoned or not. But when high (discreetly), you’ll almost want to study certain pieces, their story, and those minor details you might not notice while sober.

One of the most fun things to do on 420? Celebrate the movies that we literally made for this holiday. You can’t go wrong with some classic stoner movies for a guaranteed good time.

Whether it’s Pineapple Express, The Big Lebowski, or any Harold & Kumar film, just ensure you have some good snacks on hand to enjoy during the flick. Maybe add a creative game to the mix: take a hit every time someone references weed.

Next to weed, laughter is the best medicine. Attending a comedy show is one of the most fun things you can do while high, whether it’s 420 or not. Head to your local comedy club or research beforehand for popular shows near you.

Ever tried making a song? It’s a fun way to get those creative juices flowing, whether you’re a beginner musician or seasoned pro. You might tap into a treasure trove of talent you didn’t discover while sober. This includes music production or physical instruments—whatever you have available.

If cannabis is recreationally legal where you are, chances are, there are some 420 happenings in the city. This doesn’t have to be events you buy tickets for.

Rather, casual gatherings of stoners enjoying music and good company to celebrate the holiday with like-minded people. Find some shade by a tree, kick back, and let the good vibes roll.

Whether you’re solo or with a few friends, head out to the main strip in your city and try some lesser-known spots to eat. We’re not talking sit-down restaurants. Think mom-and-pop delis, bodegas, and local eateries that often don’t get your attention. There might be some hidden gems right under your nose.

In 2025, 420 lands on Easter Sunday. Why not merge the two together for some enhanced holiday fun? Have some friends over for a 420 Easter Egg Hunt. Hide chocolate eggs and candies, and the one who gathers the most gets a free pack of joints paid for by the group. Feel free to add in more weedy gifts and ideas as you see fit. Make it yours!

For a true mind-body connection, try incorporating some movement practices like yoga into your 420 festivities. Paired with a little weed, it can help you focus more on bodily sensations and deeply relax into those stretches. You’ll come out feeling refreshed, renewed, and ready for another toke.

420 is all about cannabis, and you probably have your preferred way of consuming it. We’re playing devil’s advocate and encouraging you to switch it up, for the sake of the holiday. After all, you were once experimental enough to try cannabis. Why not try a new way of experiencing it? Whether that’s vaping, dabbing, edibles, or tinctures, there’s always a cool way to do it.
