Record-Breaking Voting
A huge thank you to all who participated in the awards voting this year. We received an incredible 13,000+ votes, shattering all previous records. This amazing turnout is a testament to the vibrant community that makes up the Canadian cannabis industry. Congratulations to our finalists! We encourage you to be part of the event and get the recognition you deserve.
New Format, New Pricing
In an effort to make this occasion even more special, we’ve updated the format of our event. Instead of the previous dinner format at the Crystal Gardens, we’re switching to a theatre-style awards celebration in the Lecture Hall at the Victoria Conference Centre, 720 Douglas St. Victoria BC. This allows us to lower the ticket price to just $60 per person and include it in the price of a VIP pass.
