Cannabis Conference —for the People.

The one-of-a-kind cannabis business conference with all the vibes – will be bigger and better than ever. The New York market will be approaching its first full year of operations with lots of excitement and new information to learn from. Revelry will have another fire lineup with information and inspirational Signature talks from industry leaders and pioneers of the NY culture. With the success of the past conferences, the format is evolving to include Industry Recognition Awards to acknowledge some of the industry’s leaders and trend-setters.

What To Expect?

Revelry Conference is the most inclusive, diverse, and fun cannabis business conference in the indsutry. The programming is broken into 3 blocks (see Agenda below). Each block contains 5 10-minute Signature Talks and a panel discussion.

Speakers are curated from New York and out of state to give attendees real-world truth about the industry and we work with them to make sure their presentations are digestible and actionable.

There will also be 25 tables, vendors and sponsors in the venue. They range from B2B software providers, service providers (like lawyers and attorneys), associations, community groups, and product companies. Everything that a business owner will need to launch their business or strategically transition operations from the legacy market.

Here are a couple examples of our vibe: Revelry 10Revelry 11.
