Since the legalization of cannabis in New York, 4/20 events have gotten bigger every year.
Don’t pay to enter a vendor showcase or weed-less “experience”. Here are some free events.
Washington Square Park
NYC’s largest yearly cannabis meetup is April 20 in Washington Square Park. It’s next to NYU, it’s close enough to the center of the city. Hang out by the fountain or anywhere all day. There will be giveaways, sales, hustlers, and events. Everyone tokes at 4:20pm, but before and after too.
Other Parks
Try your local park, especially at the designated 4:20pm time.
Union Square
Union Square is always popping off with people smoking and selling so 4/20 is no different. It’s near some of the city’s first legal dispensaries. It’s also home to NYC’s annual weed rally, the Cannabis March (a separate event that usually takes place in May).
