Event Recap
November 2-3, 2024
CVCAN at the Heart of the Celebration!
What an incredible weekend at PS Pride! CVCAN was honored to be part of this amazing event, bringing together the LGBTQ+ community and the cannabis industry in a celebration of diversity, inclusivity, and progress. Here’s a quick recap of what went down:
Attendance at Pride was outstanding!
Over 230,000 people participated in the celebration, many of whom attended from San Diego and Los Angeles.
Education and Inspiration
More than 300 people visited our booth – buzzing with energy – as we shared the stories of cannabis trailblazers who have made a lasting impact on both the cannabis industry and the LGBTQ+ community. CVCAN handed out 100’s of flyers providing information on and links to short videos on Dennis Peron, Harvey Milk and Mary Jane Rathbun (Brownie Mary) – pioneers who helped reshape the landscape, foster equality, and drive positive change—empowering everyone to be their authentic selves.
Launch of the CVCAN Member Canna Guide
We officially launched the Coachella Valley Canna Guide at Pride! The guide promises to be a go-to resource for all things cannabis in the Coachella Valley, featuring CVCAN member cannabis shops, lounges, events, and discounts. It’s all about creating access and community in the cannabis space, and we couldn’t be more excited to share it with you!
We distributed more than 250 flyers about the Guide and more than 100 consumers signed up to gain access to the Guide and a chance to win a getaway to Jamaica and came by our after party at the 420 Bank Lounge, sponsored by our friends and CVCAN member, St. Ides.
A Big Thank You to Our Sponsors

Giveaways and Fun

Overall, PS Pride Weekend was a huge success, and we are so grateful to have been part of such a vibrant, inclusive event.
