Medicinal Cannabis Congress (MCC) statt – eine der führenden medizinischen Fortbildungsveranstaltungen Europas für Fachkreise im Bereich medizinisches Cannabis. Die Veranstaltung bringt Ärztinnen, Apothekerinnen, Wissenschaftlerinnen, Praktikerinnen und Vertreter*innen aus Gesundheitswesen, Pharmaindustrie und Forschung zusammen, um die neuesten Erkenntnisse und Trends zur Anwendung von Medizinal-Cannabis in Therapie und Versorgung zu diskutieren.

Der Medicinal Cannabis Congress steht 2026 unter dem Motto „Resilienz und psychische Stabilität – ein ganzheitlicher Ansatz“ und bietet ein kompaktes, zweitägiges Programm mit wissenschaftlich fundierten Vorträgen, Praxis-Insights und klinischen Studien.

Das Programm umfasst unter anderem:

Cannabis events at a glance

This page is all about events around cannabis and hemp. Whether you follow the industry, want to connect with like-minded people or simply need to know when the next fair near you takes place: the calendar above lists all upcoming dates chronologically, with filters for category and location.

The cannabis scene has grown considerably in recent years, and so has the number of events. Since the German Cannabis Act, the established trade fairs have been joined by ever more regional formats: club meetings, information evenings held by cultivation associations, expert talks and festivals. To help you keep track, we sort every date by format.

Hemp fair and cannabis fair: where the industry meets

Trade fairs are where the industry meets itself. Manufacturers show new products, cultivation associations look for suppliers, trade visitors compare equipment, and everyone else gets an overview in one afternoon that would otherwise take weeks to assemble. The German-speaking region now has a dense network of fairs.

Among the fixtures are Mary Jane Berlin as Germany’s largest hemp fair, the Cultiva Hanfexpo in Vienna, CannaTrade in Zurich and the Cannafair in Düsseldorf. They are joined by younger formats such as the CB Expo in Dortmund, the CannaFriends and HAMCAN in Hamburg.

If it is your first time at a cannabis fair: set aside a whole day for the large ones, wear comfortable shoes and plan the expert talks in advance. The talks are usually the most valuable part and run in parallel to the exhibition.

Cannabis festival: culture, music and lifestyle

A cannabis festival combines music, art and lifestyle with hemp culture. It is less about business than about atmosphere: a stage programme, food stalls, exhibitors and an audience that spends the day together rather than working through appointments. For many people that is the more comfortable way into the scene.

The calendar includes the Cannafestival in Karlsruhe and the Ruhr Reggae Summer, among others. Festivals without an explicit cannabis focus, such as SummerJam at Fühlinger See, have traditionally been part of the scene as well.

Cannabis conference and industry events

Cannabis conferences are aimed at a professional audience. Doctors, lawyers, investors, pharmacies and companies meet to discuss medical cannabis, research, legislation and market developments. If you work with the subject professionally, this is where the information is densest.

Relevant dates include the ICBC Berlin, the Medicinal Cannabis Congress, World Class Cannabis Business Europe and, internationally, the MJBizCon in Las Vegas.

Hanfparade and community events

The Hanfparade in Berlin is Germany’s largest demonstration for hemp as a raw material, a medicine and a recreational substance, and has taken place since 1997. It stands for education, legalisation and social change, and combines activism with community spirit.

Then there is 420 on the twentieth of April, marked worldwide and spawning its own gatherings in many cities. Community events are usually the least complicated way in: no entrance fee, no jargon, and you meet people who can help with everything else.

All your weed is love.

Cannabis events internationally

If you are willing to travel, Europe offers some of the biggest dates there are. Spannabis in Bilbao is considered the most significant cannabis fair in Europe, and the Cannafest in Prague one of the best attended. In North America, NECANN, Hall of Flowers in California and the Champs Trade Show are fixtures.

When planning a fair abroad, factor in the legal situation at your destination. What may be shown and sold at a fair differs considerably from country to country, and the rules on taking anything across a border are strict everywhere.
