Held at denvermart this year hopefully a lot bigger then the exdo that held it @last year

and the Rally on Sunday should be epic
be my 3 rd rally aslong as rob corry dont fuck it up

also last year they had the cannibal at hood labs clothing allweek I assume they're doing something again this year nice place to sit back take some dabs/burn one down(if you are in to that)
and network.
also for anyone looking to network and meet people there's a place called 24 hour pipe and tobacco (heard may have changed name) goggle thrm you will find it) on Washington near the denvermart
have very nice smoking/chill area

I am hoping that everythings a little well more ran this year
last year seems like everything run by a bunch of potheads (; and shit was just kinda half assed
Lot of good ideas just no follow through

I bought a ticket but am still debating on whether or not I want to go. I suffer from really bad vertigo and walk with a cane. I heard last year it was such a cluster fuck that it wasn't even enjoyable. And I am thinking it'll have even more people this year. Anyone know if things might be better this year? I mostly want to go to talk to growers and see if I can get some samples of seeds.

 

[Dan Knuggs]

I was wondering how many breeders will be there? If i was to go, it would be to secure beans..

Denver

In 2014, HIGH TIMES will return to the Mile High City for our fourth event at theDenver Mart. Our first two events in Denver were Medical Cannabis Cups, restricted to medical patients only. But Colorado voters legalized adult, recreational use of marijuana in the 2012 election, which resulted in our most successful Cannabis Cup ever. We now host the US Cannabis Cup, an event open to all adults.

Please note that only those 18 and over with ID may attend the event, 21 and over with ID to enter the smoking area. Those 18 and over with a Colorado medical card will also be able to enter the smoking area.
Doors open at 11am both Saturday and Sunday.

Are you a vendor? Information can be found here.

What is a Cannabis Cup?

It's a two-day trade show/EXPO incorporating vendor booths in a main building with an extended outdoor component for additional vendor booths.

This year's event will include the Cannabis Freedom Trail. Event attendees are invited to visit and sample products from Denver's participating pot shops. Choose the best and vote for them on Sunday. The shop with the most votes wins the People's Cup.

Inside booths range from glassware and clothing to grow equipment and artwork. Expect three seminars per day either in a sectioned off area off the main floor or in a private theater-like setting. The seminar topics include legalization regulations featuring Denver experts, current political issues, grow seminars with HIGH TIMES editors and a cooking seminar from our own Cannabis Cookbook author.
