Just Announced – High Times Cannabis Cup Colorado: People’s Choice 2022

The High Times Cannabis Cup Colorado: People’s Choice 2022 will be a massive competition that will celebrate cannabis in the Rocky Mountain state.

“Colorado is one of the pioneers of the cannabis industry, bringing legal medical cannabis to the State as early as 2000,” said Mark Kazinec, High Times Director, Competitions & Events. “Once it went recreational in 2012, High Times hosted the first-ever Cannabis Cup in Colorado in 2013, and it was a huge hit. People still talk about it today.

“We launched the first People’s Choice Cup in Colorado in 2020, and we’re thrilled to return in 2022 to see how Colorado has stepped up their game in the past two years.”

High Times hand-selects retail partners in Colorado, like Rocky Mountain High, to give them exclusive access to the Judge Kits.

“With a limited number of kits in each State, people line up outside of our partner shops to be the first ones to get their hands on these products,” said

Kazinec. “When you’re a loyal customer to one of our retailer partners, you deserve early access. We deliver just that, and we expect these loyalty members to put their hearts and souls into judging the kits, just as the competitors did when creating these products for the competition.”

Kits go on-sale the weekend of June 4 at select stores across Colorado. Find more info at CannabisCup.com and Sign up for Judging updates at CannabisCup.com/preregister. May the best products win!
