Toronto's KIND Summer Fair is returning to the city from August 12 to 13, 2025 — but not everyone is lighting up with excitement.
For a festival that claims to be Canada's leading cannabis event, 2024's winter edition left many attendees feeling burnt out, ripped off, and ignored.
"If I wanted to be in a mosh pit, I would've went to a metal concert like I did earlier in the month, not at a cannabis event," said one frustrated attendee after last year’s fair.
"This year KIND wanted to charge me $200 a ticket to 'network' for 4 hrs because I'm 'industry', but not a dispensary," wrote another user.
So for now, one thing's clear: Toronto's weed fair might be back, but the drama hasn't gone anywhere.
