Much-Hyped Green Street Cannabis Festival Faces High Setback
“I don’t think the city was mentally prepared for a weed event like that.”
It has high hopes of becoming the “SXSW of weed,” but the city of Los Angeles has interrupted the Green Street Cannabis Festival’s plans.
“The festival for the culture of cannabis” — slated for May 13 – 14, with an outdoor setting for thousands of pot enthusiasts — is “scrambling and trying to move it to somewhere else” after the city denied their application for a permit, according to a source.
“They may have to refund tickets. It’s a big s–t show,” one source told Page Six.
Businessman Gary Vaynerchuck and Mike Glazer are listed as hosts on the festival’s website. A press release that was sent out in January promised the event “will feature the city’s top restaurants, the state’s leading cannabis brands, and the world’s top entertainers all brought together to celebrate the cannabis community.”
