Virginia 420 Festival
Celebrating Cannabis Culture & Community in Virginia
Join us for a day of live music, education, advocacy, and celebration. Dedicated to making April 20th an official Day of Celebration.
A Celebration of Freedom and Progress
The Virginia 420 Festival recognizes the dedication of individuals and groups who have fought to reform cannabis laws in the Commonwealth. VA-420 stands for Victory Achievement for the cannabis culture — a celebration of everyone working to spread the truth about the endocannabinoid system and our connection with this remarkable plant.
Through education, advocacy, and community, we bring to light the many benefits of cannabis by educating the public and raising awareness of the science behind the fiber, food, and medicine this plant offers. This is also a celebration of freedom for millions of everyday people in Virginia and around the world, as well as freedom for those who have been imprisoned for using this beneficial plant.

Cannabis in Virginia
Virginia became the first Southern state to legalize adult-use cannabis in 2021, marking a historic milestone in the fight for cannabis reform. Adults 21 and older may legally possess up to one ounce of marijuana and cultivate up to four plants per household for personal use.
The journey to legalization was shaped by decades of advocacy from dedicated individuals and organizations across the Commonwealth. From the early days when possession of a single joint could mean a life sentence in some parts of the state, to the current era of home cultivation and community celebration, Virginia's cannabis story is one of perseverance and progress.
The Virginia 420 Festival exists at the intersection of this history and the bright future ahead. We honor those who paved the way while looking forward to a fair and equitable cannabis market that benefits all Virginians.
