April 20th not only acknowledges the man, but also his accomplishments towards cannabis legalization. Tosh wrote and performed the iconic song, “Legalize It;” which became the soundtrack of the movement. This year’s festivities are intended to bring the world together to celebrate this icon, while staying safe, but connected.
The day-long event will welcome and feature cannabis growers, infusion culinary artists, licensed distributors, celebrities/artists, cannabis entrepreneurs, policy makers, advocates, legal professionals, medical professionals, and cannabis enthusiasts.
Events will be broadcast across multiple social media and virtual platforms:

· IG Live – Hosted by Akayda Tosh (Peter Tosh’s granddaughter)

“The music of my father, Peter Tosh, demarcates the beginning of an international movement to decriminalize cannabis”, said Niambe McIntosh, administrator of her father’s estate.
