Since their first show in 2018, Hall of Flowers has consistently raised the bar when it comes to what a B2B (Business-to-Business) trade show can and should look and feel like. More importantly, year after year Hall of Flowers demonstrates what lasting benefits such an event can and should provide to the hundreds of top shelf brands and buyers who make this event, and the cannabis industry, continue to grow. Beard Bros Pharms has been doing deals on the Hall of Flowers floors for six years, but in 2024 we are taking on a whole new role with this iconic event.
The very first Hall of Flowers trade show changed the game when it launched with 40 impeccably curated booths and an overall B2B experience featuring a level of taste and class desperately missing in the cannabis industry up to that point.
On September 20-21, 2024 Hall of Flowers in Santa Rosa will feature over 200 booths, each potentially housing multiple cannabis brands, and welcome buyers and decision makers representing over 800 of California’s top dispensaries and distributors for a full day of high level networking and slangin’ the dank that will end up on the state’s best menus in the months to come.
In Santa Rosa this September, for the first time ever, Day 2 of Hall of Flowers will be open to the public! That’s right, the plan is to pack the Sonoma County Fairgrounds with thousands of cannabis connoisseurs from all over Cali and beyond for a sensory-orgasmic experience including incredible eats, dope music, art galleries, a ‘High Score” arcade, frickin’ carnival rides, and the opportunity to shop that same showroom floor and stock up on the absolute best brands covering all forms of consumption at the Hall of Flowers Festival and Cannabis Market on September 21st.
Oh, and did we mention that Bill and Jeff from Beard Bros Pharms will be set up on a dedicated stage smack dab in the middle of it all, interviewing the brightest minds and voices in cannabis live like the College Gameday of Cannabis? Yeah, buds, the game has changed alright. Hall of Flowers Santa Rosa is gonna be lit and you can be there.
If You Haven’t Been to Hall of Flowers, September in Santa Rosa is the Time to Change That
Too many cannabis events fail to provide a bang for the buck or tangible return on investment for the brands who support them by buying booth space, sponsorships, etc.
This has never been the case with Hall of Flowers as evidenced by their year-to-year organic growth to the massive marketplace they’ll be hosting in Santa Rosa in 2024. As a buyer, there is no lack of wholesale cannabis available in California, but getting your hands on the best cannabis in the state can be time consuming and costly, if you can even make the connection.
Hall of Flowers is the connection.
Farms and brands know this. Buyers know this.
They also know that on top of providing the platform to do big business, Hall of Flowers can throw a damn party like nobody else. From booth design, to lounge space aesthetic, to the thoughtfully curated food and music, to the crowd it all attracts, Hall of Flowers is always a cut above the rest.
After that first day of B2B action, brands and buyers alike will get a whole different perspective on Day 2 when retail customers like you and me pull up looking for the next best thing. Watching how custies interact with particular brands might influence a wholesale buyer to lay claim to a crop in hopes of bringing that hype to their retail dispensary.
Of course, it also allows consumers the rare opportunity to meet the people behind the packaging of their favorite brands, to ask questions or give suggestions directly to cultivators and craftspeople, and to make that human connection that cannabis culture came from and that is so often lacking in today’s industry.
Simply put, we highly recommend that you come and kick it at Hall of Flowers in Santa Rosa and bring some funds to fill your stash with some amazing goods.
Everybody wins this year at Hall of Flowers.
So, bring your friends too because there is so much to see and do. I mean, the event is at the fairgrounds, so don’t be surprised when you see people high up in the air on the ferris wheel or enjoying the nostalgic games and attractions, including a badass arcade!
In partnership with Freedom Grow, be sure to take in the canna-centric art gallery featuring pieces crafted by prisoners doing time for cannabis, as well as other iconic works of art inspired by the plant. You’ll also want to get absolutely toasted and then step into the interactive installation put together by Exploding Kittens and Joking Hazard for a mind-blowing masterpiece.
Speaking of art, there will be live glass-blowing demos from popular artists like Jerome Baker, and of course you can count on live music and DJ sets to tastefully set the vibe throughout the weekend from various stages.
The ICONOCLASTS Speaker Series continues this September with guests including, but not limited to, Task Rok from Highly Educated, Nina Parks from Equity Trade Network, and others!
Woody Harrelson’s The WOODS dispensary and lounge will be hosting an activation called The Northern California Experience, an homage to the Emerald Triangle and the legacy growers who quite literally put the cannabis plant on the map.
If jamming all of this into a single day is making you hungry, Hall of Flowers has you covered. Feast your imagination on chef-driven demos and education from multiple James Beard Award nominees, Top Chef contestants, and Michelin Star winners, then make that a reality at Hall of Flowers and the ‘A Taste of Sonoma Culinary Experience’ presented by Sonoma Hills Farm.
Mason Hereford of Turkey and the Wolf will be blessing tastebuds with his extraordinary take on sandwich tech. Chris Cosentino (author, philanthropist, winner of Top Chef Masters, and cannabis aficionado) will be onsite demonstrating culinary uses for the cannabis plant that could only come from his full spectrum imagination. There is even an option to book a sit-down, farm-to-table culinary experience from Chef Telmo Faria in a venue right in the heart of Hall of Flowers.
Consider this your personal invitation to all of the above. You know Beard Bros Pharms will be there.
Beard Bros Pharms to Cover HOF 2024 Live “From the 50 Yard Line”
Someone call the Guiness Book of World Records as OCB and Houseplant will be hosting a smokeout at 4:20pm on September 21st at the Hall of Flowers main stage where they plan to break the record for most joints lit at one time!
We also got word that Wiz Khalifa himself will be at the event and although he will not be performing he WILL BE handing out hundreds of joints at the Khalifa Kush Smokeout with Wiz.
The Beard Bros will be in the rotation all weekend long from their firsthand view of the endless array of activations and activists, food and fun, cannabis and culture, and everything that a Hall of Flowers event entails.
Cannabis culture deserves this. Let’s party at Hall of Flowers Santa Rosa 2024.
