The 3rd Annual Nashville Canna Festival

Set to take over Music City from April 17–19, the 2026 Nashville Canna Festival is Tennessee's premier, 21+ cannabis and hemp lifestyle event, offering an elevated blend of education, wellness, and industry networking. Moving far beyond the traditional 420 block party, this three-day experience serves as a dynamic hub for consumers, advocates, and forward-thinking brands, featuring expert-led panels on hemp policy and business, a holistic Healing Zone for restorative therapies, live music, and a sprawling Vendor Marketplace.

Particularly significant as the state adapts to the strict new retail and product regulations under House Bill 1376, the festival provides a vital, high-energy platform to connect with the Southern cannabis community, showcase fully compliant wellness products, and celebrate the plant’s holistic benefits in a legally safe, empowering environment.
