In what’s being called a first for Canada, live event fans will be getting buzzed in cannabis beverages, edibles and other distilled pot products couriered to them in festivals’ designated areas, said Nathan Mison, president of Diplomat Consulting.
“This is a big deal – Alberta has been very willing to have unique and beneficial conversations on this,” said Mison, formerly a cannabis retailer.
The change was made possible by the province green-lighting private pot retailers to sell online and deliver purchases that came into effect Tuesday – and by months of discussions with Alberta’s Associate Ministry of Red Tape Reduction, he said.
Under the new model, festivals and live events will offer fans a designated consumption area where products will be delivered and consumed with food or beverages as long as the latter service isn’t being sold or combined with alcohol.
