The Emerald Cup Competitors

High Times is the definitive resource for all things cannabis. From cultivation and legalization, to entertainment and culture, to hard-hitting news exposing the War on Drugs, High Times has been the preeminent source for cannabis information since 1974. Our publication has featured original works from some of the great names in counterculture and literature including Truman Capote, Hunter S.Thompson, Charles Bukowski and William Burroughs, to name a few. That history of excellence continues to this day with a focus on exposing the truth, presenting the public with the latest information and research findings, and advocating for a legal and safe cannabis industry. High Times has continued to evolve to become as much of a cultural destination as a respected news outlet. Our unyielding coverage of the cannabis lifestyle has helped define one of the most prolific and enduring subcultures in modern American society. Music, arts, entertainment, live events and food now all have a seat at the table in the cannabis movement. Fueling the cannabis movement is a series of High Times-sponsored events. These include our highly attended Cannabis Cup trade shows celebrating the champions of cannabis and our new Business Summit conference to break down barriers and connect everyone from entrepreneurs and advocates to health care providers and policymakers. High Times is much more than magazine. Today, High Times transcends the print, digital and physical worlds through magazines, websites, apps and live events. We are journalists, enthusiasts, entrepreneurs, music lovers, foodies, tech geeks and much more. But above all, we are committed to connecting people with the most relevant and timely information to inform their worldview and help them take a serious look at the health benefits, business opportunities and rich culture of cannabis.

As a lifestyle publication, DOPE Magazine is dedicated to creating purposeful, relevant conversations. When we printed our inaugural issue in 2011 we positioned ourselves in the cannabis arena as a team of professionals determined to normalize the plant. While cannabis remains the central theme of our brand, 2017 has marked a turning point in our progression. We’ve built a steadfast framework of inclusivity when speaking about gender, race, class, politics, family and culture—with the ethos DEFEND. Our aim is to continue to illuminate issues that deserve our attention and must be addressed if we wish to both promote and create change. It is truly a ground up approach.
