With outdoor harvests chopped and curing, that means MJBizCon is rapidly approaching and that means one thing… it is almost time to party hard in the entertainment capital of the world – Las Vegas! Beard Bros Pharms has joined forces with some top shelf partners like Green State, Good Life Gang, and CCELL to raise the bar even higher for Vegas Cannabis Week 2024 so set your schedule and we will see you in Sin City!
Centered around MJBizCon, the largest and most prestigious cannabis convention of the year, the December days (and especially the nights) surrounding this global gathering have taken on a life of their own in a must-attend block that has come to be known as Vegas Cannabis Week.
It is no secret that big business gets done on the show floor at MJBizCon and attendees typically clock tens of thousands of steps in an attempt to see everything this B2B event offers, but it is also a well-known tradition that there is no actual cannabis consumption inside the convention center.
For a demographic that has grown up sealing deals over a shared spliff, this disconnect led to years of awkwardly standing outside, in front of the building, chiefing joints and making new friends or catching up with old ones. That was the high level networking for years, but not anymore.
Nevada, like most states with regulated cannabis markets, has experienced a leveling-off of sales totals as prices and demand stabilize. But Las Vegas remains a hotspot thanks to the neverending influx of canna-curious tourists, the promise of public consumption lounges, and the establishment of world-class retail dispensaries like Planet 13.
The popularity of the plant, coupled with the importance of attending MJBizCon each year, has led to the organic growth of the afterparties and ancillary events that have naturally spun off the success that the main event has earned. This series of daytime and nighttime activations found outside of the Las Vegas Convention center and all around town have in recent years been dubbed as Vegas Cannabis Week.
So, for the full spectrum experience, and to maximize your trip to Vegas this December, here is a breakdown of the must-attend events surrounding the 4-day MJBizCon extravaganza.
Vegas Cannabis Week 2024 – What To Do on December 3rd?
Wasting no time with the wake and bake, Vegas Cannabis Week 2024 festivities kickoff bright and early on December 3rd with the Las Vegas Classic golf tournament with intrepid participants teeing off at 8:00am. As an official partner with MJBizCon, this HIGH stakes tourney is hosted by James Bo Keys and takes place just steps away from the convention center at the Las Vegas Country Club.
December 3rd also marks the one day reMind Psychedelics Business Forum, an officially sanctioned MJBizCon offshoot focused on the future of entheogens where Beard Bros Pharms co-founder Bill Levers will be a featured speaker.
After a long day on the links and with no golf carts allowed at MJBizCon or the reMind conference, you’ll surely be ready to unwind that evening and Vegas Cannabis Week 2024 has a little something for everyone.
The night of December 3rd is packed with destination events like the Blunt Brunch: Night of Glitz and Glamour, a ladies night soiree you won’t soon forget! We’re also looking forward to Tech Jam ‘24 hosted by our buds at Sorting Robotics, a laid-back, high-energy ‘happy hour’ that runs from 5:30pm until 9:30pm on that opening night.
Vegas Cannabis Week 2024 – What To Do on December 4th?
Waking up still a bit baked from last night? It happens to the best of us, fam, but what better way to clear that brainfog than with a fun and friendly workout to start your day? Hit the rooftop of the Plaza Hotel with fellow fitness freaks for a friendly pickleball tournament known as the Golden Paddle Showdown, presented by Polar Gold Extracts, PufCreativ, JV, Wax Max, and Fat Nugs. First serve is at 10:00am!
This is also the first full scale day of MJBizCon with the entire expo available to attendees so ancillary activities spark up later in the day.
This includes the most highly anticipated event of Vegas Cannabis Week 2024, the GLG Party Bizcon 2024, presented by Good Life Gang, CCELL, Solvent Direct, and Beard Bros Pharms from 6:00pm to 10:00pm on the High Stakes stage at Planet 13. Good hash, good food, and good people are the perfect ingredients for a great night of grassroots networking where everyone is a VIP.
Offering a heavy dose of cannabis culture so often lost at other events or after”parties”, this unrivaled experience takes full advantage of the cutting edge ambiance and high-energy vibes that Planet 13, the world’s largest dispensary, provides.
Famed hash artist and record selecta Nikka T will be DJing a live set while over 350 attendees enjoy dank catering by Hibachi Done Wright and peruse the goods in the Dazed Lounge, a thoughtfully curated space highlighting Nevada’s best cannabis brands. Of course, this is your best opportunity to pick the brains behind Beard Bros Pharms, get linked up with the Good Life Gang, and see what’s coming next from CCELL, a leading innovator in our industry. It’s more than a party, it’s a celebration!
If you’re still ready to rage after 10 o’clock, events like Blaze of Glory and the D.I.C.E. Mixer will carry on later into the night.
Vegas Cannabis Week 2024 – What To Do on December 5th?
Wake up, bake up, and get your bagel on with the Bagel Bash, presented by Jews in Cannabis. As they say in their promo, “You’ll schmooze, you’ll schmear, you’ll talk about this morning for a year!”
This is a big deal-making day at MJBizCon as decision makers make decisions and that leads to some epic afterparties and events on Thursday night. Everyone loves an awards show so be sure to attend the Emjays at the Palms from 7:00pm to 10:00pm to see who takes home the hardware, then the Emjays Afterparty at KAOS at the Palms.
This might seem like a jam-packed itinerary but the truth is, this is just a sprinkle of kief on the full bowl of Vegas Cannabis Week 2024 and it’s going to be LIT.
For a safe bet of all there is to do each day before and after your time spent at MJBizCon, be sure to hit up Green State for Rachelle Gordon’s official to-do list and remember… the odds are high that what happens at Vegas Cannabis Week 2024 might just take you and your brand to the next level!
