In Bloom was a three-day cannabis festival, featuring multi-experiential activations that "stimulated the mind, activated the senses, and connected a growing community." The event was hosted by Broccoli Magazine -- a pot-centric publication, in Portland and the attendees, as well as Vogue, had identified the vibe as 'weed prom.'
The In Bloom cannabis festival boasted musical performances, artistically charged and florally themed experimental installations, a number of panels (including one on entrepreneurship), hands-on and CBD-inspired workshops, live podcasts, a welcome dinner, a pop-up designer marketplace, and more. Thus, Broccoli Magazine's cannabis festival featured many interactive components that engaged and entertained the public. It highlighted the properties of the cannabis plant and it created networking opportunities for those who attended.
