NYC Cannabis Events – July 2025 Guide by Cannabrite
These aren’t weed events.
They’re what New York cannabis culture really looks like—legal, loud, and built from the block up.
This month, it’s all here:
Music battles. Puff-and-paint nights. Infused wellness. Real networking. And delivery from the dispensaries that matter.
1. Buds & Bars – NYC’s First Legal Cannabis Rap Battle
Friday, July 12 | 8PM | S.O.B.’s – Manhattan

Buds & Bars is legacy.
Seven years deep. Rooftops, backrooms, no handouts.

Now, it’s legal. And louder than ever.
High Ape built this.

Packaging Wars champion. Now licensed and leading.
This isn’t a corporate remix.
This is the first legal cannabis rap battle in New York history.
