Convention

MJ Unpacked Kansas City 2026

📍 Kansas City, Missouri

📅 Oct 14, 2026 - Oct 15, 2026

MJ Unpacked is the invitation-style trade event that puts licensed cannabis brands in the same room as the retail buyers who decide what goes on dispensary shelves. Rather than a sprawling expo floor, the format is built around pre-scheduled meetings, curated exhibits and a conference track aimed at CPG-minded operators, so the people you meet are there to do business. The 2026 edition runs October 14-15 at the Sheraton Kansas City Hotel at Crown Center, placing the show in the middle of the Midwest's fast-growing adult-use markets. Missouri's own retail sector, along with neighbouring Illinois, Ohio and Minnesota, gives brands a concentrated audience of multi-state and independent buyers. Expect brand showcases, buyer-brand matchmaking, capital and investor sessions, and evening networking. For accessory and packaging suppliers it is a compact, high-signal way to reach retail decision-makers without the noise of a mega-show.

Expo

Hall of Flowers New York

📍 New York City, New York

📅 Oct 21, 2026 - Oct 22, 2026

Hall of Flowers returns to Pier 36 in Lower Manhattan for its second New York edition, and the structure is what makes it work. Day one is trade-only: licensed brands meeting vetted retail buyers, with no tourists wandering the aisles. Day two opens to the 21+ public as a consumer festival. Brands get their wholesale orders done first, then get their products in front of actual New York consumers. The market context is hard to ignore. New York has passed 556 active dispensaries and $2.5 billion in cumulative legal sales, making it the third-largest cannabis market in the country. Licensed New York retailers get in free with valid OCM license documentation, which keeps the buyer side of the floor genuinely stocked with decision-makers. Hall of Flowers started in California in 2018 and built its reputation on curation. The booths look good, the brand list is selective, and the show has become the main product-discovery moment for the New York market each fall.

Summit

CanExec Summit Toronto

📍 Toronto, Canada

📅 Oct 29, 2026 - Oct 30, 2026

CanExec Summit represents the pinnacle of Canadian cannabis executive gatherings, bringing together 250 carefully selected C-suite decision-makers for two days of high-level discourse on the industry's most pressing challenges and opportunities. This intimate, invitation-focused event eschews the traditional trade show floor entirely, creating an environment where strategic dialogue and deal-making take center stage. The summit format is 100% panel discussions, keynote presentations, and structured networking. Topics address the realities facing mature Canadian cannabis companies: path to profitability, M&A opportunities, international expansion strategies, regulatory evolution, and competitive positioning. Speakers are exclusively executives with operational authority and market expertise—no vendor pitches, just strategic intelligence. Attendance is capped at 250 participants, ensuring that every attendee is a qualified decision-maker. The intimate size facilitates meaningful conversations rather than surface-level networking. Between formal sessions, the Omni King Edward Hotel's elegant spaces provide settings for the kind of in-depth discussions that lead to partnerships, investments, and industry consolidation. Timing in late October positions CanExec as the strategic planning event before year-end. Executives leave with intelligence and relationships that inform their 2027 strategies. For Canadian cannabis C-suite leaders, CanExec Summit is the most valuable two days of the year.

Expo

Hall of Flowers Sacramento

📍 Sacramento, California

📅 Nov 4, 2026 - Nov 5, 2026

Hall of Flowers is moving its flagship California show. After running every fall edition at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds in Santa Rosa since 2018, the trade show relocates to Cal Expo in Sacramento for 2026. The official reasoning is reach: Sacramento is the state capital, it is easier to get to from most of California, and Sacramento International Airport is close by. The show itself stays what it has always been, a B2B trade show where licensed California brands write wholesale orders with vetted dispensary buyers. Hall of Flowers earned its position by being selective about exhibitors and serious about booth design, and the fall California edition is the key product-discovery and ordering moment before the holiday season. For Santa Rosa, losing the show stings; it had become a fixture of the North Bay cannabis economy. For everyone else, the move mostly means easier logistics and a bigger venue. The franchise also runs shows in Ventura and New York City.

Expo

Cannafest Prague

📍 Prague, Czech Republic

📅 Nov 6, 2026 - Nov 8, 2026

Cannafest Prague stands as one of Europe's oldest and most beloved cannabis gatherings, drawing 30,000+ visitors to the Czech capital for three days of exhibition, education, and celebration. Since 2008, Cannafest has grown from a counter-culture happening into a professional trade fair while retaining the welcoming, cannabis-positive atmosphere that defines Czech cannabis culture. The Czech Republic's progressive cannabis policies have made Prague a natural home for cannabis gatherings. Decriminalization, an established medical program, and cultural acceptance create an environment where cannabis business and culture flourish openly. Cannafest programming reflects this maturity with substantive sessions on cultivation, extraction, medical applications, and policy developments. With 250+ exhibitors from across Europe and beyond, the expo floor offers comprehensive coverage of the cannabis industry. Czech companies showcase local innovation while international exhibitors seek access to the Central European market. The mix of B2B and consumer focus creates an atmosphere that's both commercially productive and culturally vibrant. Prague's legendary hospitality extends the Cannafest experience beyond the expo halls. The city's historic architecture, renowned beer culture, and vibrant nightlife provide unforgettable settings for networking and celebration. Many attendees return year after year, not just for the expo but for the community and the city. Cannafest is more than a trade fair—it's a European cannabis tradition.
