Description

V.I.B.E. Vancouver Island Budtender Events is back in Victoria for a night built for the people who move cannabis culture on the island. This session is about slowing down, linking up, and creating real connections between budtenders, retailers, and brands in a space that feels welcoming and easy.

This edition will also highlight a curated selection of craft growers and small-batch brands, creating space to showcase the people and processes behind some of the island’s most intentional cannabis. It’s a chance to connect directly with the makers, hear their stories, and experience products rooted in quality, care, and community.

Expect hands-on brand experiences, thoughtful product education, and time to connect with fellow island budtenders. No pressure, no sales floor energy. Just good people, good products, and real conversations with the plant at the center.

Date: Thursday July 16, 2026
