Seattle Hempfest is the largest cannabis policy reform event in the world. Now in its 18th year, the protestival attracts tens of thousands of people each day to listen to Hempfest’s reform messages amidst the festival atmosphere.

Seattle Hempfest serves to educate the community on the advantages of cannabis policy reform. The economic, medical, industrial and civil rights benefits that come with legalization are presented in a digestible manner at the 2-day event.

And with many changes in the political scene in the past year - such as Obama as the new president, former Seattle Police Chief Gil Kerlikowske as the new drug czar, Oregon legalizing hemp and California looking at economic benefits, Seattle Hempfest predicts more cannabis policy reform is on the horizon. To effect change, Hempfest drives to reach more constituents through its speakers and entertainers to encourage them to use their voting power.
