It Could Be a Sign of Challenges in the Cannabis Industry | KQED","labelTerm":{"site":"news"},"content":"\u003cp>Since 2016, when California voters legalized cannabis for recreational use, sales have blossomed into a multibillion-dollar industry — and the promise of this “green gold” was most apparent during the 420 Festival at San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since 2017, the annual free event has become a more expensive enterprise than the days prior when stoners informally gathered at Hippie Hill. Drum circles and hand-to-hand cannabis sales transformed into big-name concerts and flashy new cannabis brands marketing their wares from merchandise booths.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People don’t realize there’s a lot of infrastructure that needs to happen to be compliant with all the city departments and to have legal sales and consumption,” said Alex Aquino, a longtime festival organizer. “There’s a lot of restrictions and guidelines, and it’s expensive to do that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Economic realities have apparently caught up with the festival. Citing a struggling cannabis industry and city budget cuts, organizers \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11980820/san-franciscos-annual-420-celebration-on-hippie-hill-canceled-for-2024\">canceled\u003c/a> this year’s celebration. Aquino said there weren’t enough sponsorship dollars to make it happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really up to the sponsors to come and say, ‘Hey, we have the cash and the financing to fund this event,’” he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Aquino, the 420 Festival — which has cost nearly a half-million dollars to set up — relies on sponsorships and donations. He said the event typically draws around 40,000 people, requiring security, portable toilets and permits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The festival’s lack of sponsorship dollars this year is likely due to inflation and the high cost of borrowing money, according to David Downs, senior editor at Leafly.com and organizer of the city’s first-ever \u003ca href=\"https://sfweedweek.com/\">SF Weed Week\u003c/a>, which is set to take place this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Alex Aquino, organizer, 420 Festival\"]‘It’s really up to the sponsors to come and say, ‘Hey, we have the cash and the financing to fund this event.”[/pullquote]“Businesses are being very careful where they spend their marketing dollars. Those budgets are often the first to get cut as businesses seek profitability,” Downs said. “Hippie Hill in 2024 sailed into those headwinds.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Cannabis sales have been on the decline. Sales peaked in 2021 at $5.35 billion but dropped by $45 million the following year. The most recent data, showing sales through June 2023, reveals even weaker sales.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Downs calls the outlook for the pot industry in California “Dickensian.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s the best of times and the worst of times; it just depends on who you’re talking to,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By all accounts, business is good at Solful, a cannabis dispensary in San Francisco’s Inner Sunset neighborhood. On a weekday afternoon, a steady stream of customers peruses colorful aisles of cannabis flower, oils and even cannabis-spiked seltzers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Related Stories\" postID=\"news_11980820,news_11663153,news_11661946\"]“I never like to think cannabis is all doom and gloom,” said Eli Melrod, CEO and co-founder of Solful. “It’s certainly having its challenges. I think we’ve had some rainy days, but I think the future is always bright for cannabis. I mean, people will always consume weed, right?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Melrod said the lack of sponsorship dollars for the 420 festival this year tracks with a general purse-string-tightening happening now in the industry.
