The best Cannabis business to business event is back in Ventura, CA.
Hall of Flowers once again set to uplift the industry March 18-19, 2026
Just like the Cannabis industry, Hall of Flowers sewed the seeds to grow the industry at the same time a b2b event unlike any other of its kind. Rama Mayo, one of the founders of HOF: “What started as a ‘crazy idea’ has grown into one of the most important gatherings in Cannabis”. That crazy idea has paved the road to a successful series of shows ever since the first Hall of Flowers. He and his partners in Cannabis have taken their collective talents and skills to develop what is the most premium, well respected, and successful trade show for the Cannabis industry.
Hall of Flowers is the original Cannabis business to business industry trade show that started it all in California.
The first HOF took place just as legalization was about to launch in California. The little known event took place in Santa Rosa, back then medical cannabis collective owners were invited to the HOF experiment. From there, the event grew and has become the premium event of the year for Cannabis brands and growers to come together with buyers and owners of legal retail shops throughout the state.
This year’s epic gathering of the Cannabis minds makes the 15th Hall of Flowers since inception. Initially HOF started as a once a year event at the Santa Rosa fairgrounds in Northern California. In just a few years HOF would expand to twice a year in two locations, Santa Rosa up north and another area in the vicinity of southern California. HOF has opened up minds in cities that were once very restrictive to any Cannabis activity. Hall of Flowers has taken place twice in Palm Springs, and now three times this year in Ventura. These once conservative communities changed their stance and perspective of what a Cannabis event would look like and how it would be accepted by the community. HOF has become a considerable economy booster when its in town. Dozens of hotels, restaurants, coffee shops, bars, and more all benefit from thousands of Cannabis professionals coming to HOF.
Hall of Flowers changed the game and has uplifted an industry during its infancy and continued to help the community of Cannabis professionals keep their jobs and grow successful brands. HOF is dedicated to both the suppliers and the retailers with innovative activations at HOF including speaker series, networking functions and much more.
It’s more than a trade show, it’s a business generator built to grow successful businesses.
At Hall of Flowers, connections are made, brands are born and grown. The Cannabis industry has gained more connections thanks to Hall of Flowers.
