Herb’s Legalization Party Was A Night For True Cannabis Enthusiasts

With the Canadian cannabis market expected to hit $9.2 billion by 2025, the stampede to cash-in has brought many entrepreneurs into the market who have never felt zig zags and ground-up flower between their fingertips, let alone put that joint between their lips and lit up.

How can you represent a culture you have never been a part of? How can you represent people who you don’t listen to?

In order to represent the voice of cannabis culture on October 17, 2018, Herb partnered with Burb and MagicalButter to launch a legalization party that had one simple mission: spread good vibes.

The night included free Indica, Sativa and Hybrid joints for every attendee, CBD-infused cocktails, and giveaways of MagicalButter Machines.

The sweet smell of burning weed floated down a neighborhood block as cannabis enthusiasts, designers, creatives, and leaders of some of the most influential cannabis companies in the space stood side-by-side passing perfectly-rolled joints and watching an era of prohibition come to an end.

Against the background of neon-signs and the curated beats of a DJ flown in from Burning Man’s Black Rock City, everyone in attendance inhaled cannabis and exhaled the bullshit.

For everyone at the party, legalization was far from a novelty moment; it was a dream being realized. Cannabis culture isn’t just a hobby. It is baked into who we are.

This is what the zeitgeist of legalization felt like on the night nearly a century of prohibition fell.
