The Cannabis Expo at The Sandton Convention Centre

18 november 2021 - 21 november 2021.

After a nearly two-year hiatus thanks to the global pandemic, South Africa is once again able to host large scale events, and The Cannabis Expo, Africa’s largest cannabis event, is returning to Sandton.

The first major exhibition to take place in SA in 2021,  The Cannabis Expo  presented by  JuicyFields  runs from 18 to 21 November at the Sandton Convention Centre and is already attracting huge visitor and business interest.

“The Cannabis Expo is the perfect mix of cannabis business and lifestyle,” says expo director Silas Howarth. “With multiple spaces to explore, including the cannabis food market, the expo hall, the freedom music festival as well as the convention stages and networking lounges, The Cannabis Expo allows attendees to visit and participate in a safe environment.”

The cannabis industry is still booming in Africa and around the globe, and international medicinal cannabis powerhouse JuicyFields, is proving its commitment to helping the industry grow on the continent by partnering with The Cannabis Expo events.

JuicyFields, a medicinal cannabis crowd-growing platform that connects ‘e-growers’ with licensed producers and distributors from around the world, has been actively developing global cannabis businesses, focussing on Europe, Latin America and Africa.

“JuicyFields is an exciting and dynamic brand that is taking the cannabis world by storm. After hosting The Cannabis Expo with JuicyFields in Mexico City earlier this year, we are really excited to be working with them here in South Africa, and to be able to properly introduce the JuicyFields ethos and team to the African cannabis community,” says Howarth.

With over 100 exhibitor stands representing organisations from across the cannabis industry, visitors and delegates at The Cannabis Expo will be able to access an entire world of cannabis-related products, services and information.

The expo also includes the delegate convention stage, where global cannabis experts, industry leaders and government representatives take part in moderated panel discussions around all aspects of cannabis business, health, regulation and opportunities. With dedicated meeting rooms and a dealmakers’ lounge, delegates have access to a dedicated app where they can reach out to and set up meetings with the exhibitors, convention speakers as well as cannabis business entrepreneurs, investors and experts.

“Sandton Convention Centre is about to once again become the African meeting point for the global cannabis industry,” says Howarth. “From a business and regulatory perspective, if you’re in the local cannabis industry, or looking to do cannabis business in Africa, you need to be at The Cannabis Expo.”

While cannabis is big business, there is also a whole lot of fun to be had at The Cannabis Expo. The Cannabis Food Market runs over the four days, with a wide range of cannabis-infused foods and drinks on offer.

Also accessed by all expo visitors is The Freedom Festival, the ultimate music event for cannabis enthusiasts, providing a vibrant outdoor festival environment, including a festival stage hosting popular bands, artists and DJs throughout the event.

The Cannabis Expo presented by JuicyFields takes place from 18 to 21 November 2021, 10am – 18:00, at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg. Tickets and delegate passes now available from R150. For tickets or more information visit  www.thecannabisexpo.co.za

South Africa’s First “Official” Cannabis Café Is Now Operating In Sandton

Last year October, word got out about a coffee shop in Sandton.

Of course, it’s not just any coffee shop. Known as 420 Café, it’s the first known cannabis cafe of its kind in South Africa, and it now trades pretty openly.

We got a pretty good introduction to it then – read about it here , as well as some words from the owner Frank L. – but one more visit was necessary.

Times LIVE took another hit and headed over for a peek:

The café’s peaked thatch roof is reminiscent of a lodge in the Lowveld although‚ confusingly‚ there’s an artificial green palm tree at the entrance. The sign at the door is confirmation of what the café offers – it’s a dagga leaf with two fronds folded to form a V sign and the words “420 friendly”. The other sign that is clearly visible at 420 Café: No persons under 21 allowed.

Is that a “sign” of what’s to come when the green eventually gets legalised? Perhaps a mere deterrent so the young’uns don’t abuse the space.

Situated in Sandton, one of Jozi’s most exclusive suburbs, “stoners don’t conform to a stereotype”:

[A]mong them are lawyers and businesspeople in tailored suits and high heels. Word of the coffee shop has spread‚ so patrons also come from further afield. As you enter the ground floor‚ you are greeted by graffiti and a cloud of smoke – joints are smoked freely. Yes‚ freely. (I have an admission I should make: I don’t do dagga‚ so imagine my surprise.)

Oh, and although there is a bar, no alcohol is available.

Operating under the guise that it “gives people who have been prescribed marijuana by a doctor a place to purchase the drug and consume it‚ out of public view,” it’s obvious that isn’t really the case:

The hours are convenient – 11am to 11pm – for those wanting a coffee and cannabis break at mid-morning‚ to feed the munchies at lunch or to pop in after work and drift away until closing time. 420 Café’s regular menu offers pizzas‚ toasties and burgers. The bakery does good business in muffins that look pretty fresh – and they’re apparently pretty spacey.

What about the weed on offer? Take a deep whiff of this:

But it was the other menu that intrigued me. It has three categories: “Weed”‚ “Dabs” and “Other”‚ and under each category you can order such things as lemon cheese‚ boss cheese‚ super cheese‚ lemon cheese bulk pack‚ rig rental‚ darkstar dabs‚ buddha‚ weedos‚ moonrocks and cannagars. Cheese is a strain of cannabis plant grown in the United Kingdom. Lemon cheese is a crossbreed of cheese and lemon skunk. Boss cheese is a cross between Tang Tang and Chemdog. Super cheese is reminiscent of old-school strains in Amsterdam’s coffee shops of the 1980s and created through crossing cheese strains.

Darkstar is a cross between an Afghani strain and purple kush strain and dabs are concentrated extracts of cannabis. Buddha is a cannabis strain that‚ for obvious reasons‚ is also called Laughing Buddha. The best way to describe weedos is cannabis snacks. Moon rocks look like nuggets and consist of dagga‚ kief (“pollen” – the trichomes on the flower or leaf) and oil. Cannagars are cannabis cigars where the ground-up weed and cannabis concentrate is wrapped in dagga leaves and they’re apparently pretty smooth to smoke.

Prices vary from R100 to R1 000 per gram, and, together with 10 staff members, Frank is hands-on and has strict rules:

A sign in bold letters states the house rules: Take a seat and wait to be served No eating upstairs No drugs Rude and impatient people won’t be tolerated. It’s all medicinal.

And now you know.

Before you go smoke a bong, one more thing: here’s the address .

Oh, and if you’re living in the Cape and have no plans to ever go to Jozi, try this on for size . Bongs, weed, dabs and alles.

What people are saying.

"Thanks for the perfect deal on the room. The location of the room was excellent!"

"Ayanna exceeded my expectation with my family cruise. I had never used an travel agent, someone had suggested her and I'm glad they did. She answered every question that I had, no matter what time of day I called, text, or emailed her. If she didn't have an answer right then and there she always got back to me right away once she had it. She's really a rock star in what she does! Will be using her for all my future travel plans! " -J. Lewis
