CANCELED: Ben Masel Day 420 Block Party

press release: The Great Midwest Marijuana Harvest Festival (GMMHF) is the longest running cannabis legalization rally in the nation, and quite possibly the world. The festival started as a collective of volunteers, and in the '80s started to include live music and the march to the Wisconsin state Capitol to rally for cannabis legalization. The event rose in popularity in the '90s; some of the events in the '90s were attended by tens of thousands of people! What began as a smoke-in at the Wisconsin state Capitol has now become a 501(c)(3) organization. This year in 2020 the event will be celebrating it’s 50th anniversary In October.

This year the GMMHF is doing something special for 420, along with local business partners Knuckleheads CBD and Vapes and Cheba Hut Toasted Subs. The GMMHF will be hosting a 420 block party on Saturday, April 18. The event will be located on the 400 block of West Gilman Street, the same block that Cheba Hut is on. The event begins at 12pm and will feature local artists, vendors and great 420 deals from local business partners; as well as raffles and fun events at both Cheba Hut and Knuckleheads. Free music will begin at 4:20pm and end at 10pm. Music opens with Modern Joey, Sweet Delta Dawn, and Spare Change Trio, and will end with Seaside Zoo.
