The Sonoma Fairgrounds were alive with entertainment, education, and excitement. There were musical performances by Damian Marley, Dirty Heads, Nattali Rize, Raging Fyah, Stick Figure, Tribal Seeds, Thrive, Vokab Kompany, Kabaka Pyramid, Arden Park Roots, California Honey Drops, and Hirie. On both days of the Emerald Cup, there were seminars on marketing tips for your cannabis business, political updates post prop 64, safely using cannabis on pets, certifying your farm, and medical cannabis access for veterans. Workshops were available to attendees and ranged from the de-scheduling of marijuana to cannabis therapeutics.
