Hall of Flowers May 2022: Here’s What to Expect | Weedmaps

Hall of Flowers Palm Springs is coming up again. It’s a big trade show where hundreds of California brands come together with the state’s buyers to find perfect harmony in business.

If you’re considering going, here’s what you should expect from the event itself, as well as the parties and networking opportunities throughout the evenings.

What is Hall of Flowers?

Hall of Flowers is a licensed, industry-only, highly curated B2B show designed to facilitate commerce between a vast network of premium licensed cannabis brands and retailers. It’s pretty much a big trade show for those brands to bring their best weed to the faces, noses, and lungs of the state’s biggest (and smallest) dispensary buyers.

Flower, dabs, edibles, pre-rolls, tinctures — the whole gamut of products will be showcased. I went to my first one last November, and it was definitely unlike any type of weed event, festival, or fair that I’d attended before. It’s a great networking opportunity for people in the industry, as it puts everyone you’ve only known via email under the same roof in the same city for a few days.

What to expect at Hall of Flowers this May

Hall of Flowers Palm Springs will occur from May 4 – 5, 2022. At the event itself, you can expect weed and people — people selling weed, people buying weed, people smoking weed. There, you can get eighth samples for like $3. It’s pretty wild to witness and participate in because this is California’s best weed. Besides that, the purpose is for brands to secure deals to get into dispensaries so they can sell that weed for its true market value.

After the event ends for the day, there’s usually a plethora of afterparties. Here are some of the events that will happen throughout its opening.

May 4 — Wednesday
