It’s been a long journey since the COVID-19 pandemic began. With the world gaining some sort of normalcy, it seems that events are slowly coming back. This includes cannabis events. The cannabis industry did not go unaffected by the pandemic. In fact, cannabis stocks suffered significantly at the beginning of the pandemic. Recently, they earned their footing and recovered along with the economy. Many of the cannabis events returning post covid are events that were postponed last year. Or they had been transitioned over to a virtual platform. Regardless, we are happy to see cannabis events return. Here are a few you can check out.
