With Colorado’s recent legalisation of the recreational use of marijuana, ticket sales for Denver’s fifth annual Cannabis Cup this month are expected to double, according to event organisers.
The roving trade show, sponsor ed by High Times magazine, has already sold around 25,000 tickets to its Denver event, Dan Skye, the magazine’s editorial director and a spokesman for the show, said on the telephone.
That’s almost 10,000 more than last year, Skye said, with 30,000 visitors expected in total over the weekend, April 19 and 20. In fact, the event has grown so large, organisers were prompted to change venues from the Exdo Event Center to Denver Mart, where there will be plenty of outdoor space for, well, sampling.
Booths lining the outside recreation area will represent around 250 dispensaries, growers and pot shops, with lots of merchandise to be tested by those 21 and older, and those 18 and older with a medical use card.
