Last year’s first annual High Life Festival was a party of epic proportions. Some of the best musical acts in the world showed up to San Bernardino to entertain attendees and smoke on award-winning cannabis products all weekend long.
California has a world-renowned marijuana culture and a deep appreciation for hip-hop, so it’s only fitting that the High Life Festival delivers the best of both worlds for a second installment.
The two-day festival, taking place August 26-27, will feature fierce competitions to crown the best of the best in eight different cannabis categories, as well as hundreds of vendors handing out samples and a stacked lineup of rappers that hip-hop fans new and old won’t want to miss.
Brands from across the state will bring their best flower, concentrate, edibles, tinctures, topicals, and vape cartridges to be judged among California’s top contenders. There will also be best new product and highest THC categories for brands to compete for bragging rights. If you’re over 18 and have your medical marijuana recommendation from any legal state, you’ll be granted entry into the smoking area of the festival. Feel free to bring your favorite glass if you plan on smoking all weekend at High Life, because why not experience some of the best weed California has to offer out of your favorite piece?
If you thought last year’s High Life lineup was stacked, you should sit down before reading on.
High Life is bringing some of the Dirty South’s all-time greats to the stage to tear it down, not to mention NY and Chi-town legends, and some of the hottest young artists in hip-hop.
On Saturday, Brotha Lynch Hung and B-Legit will get things burning before Memphis trap phenom Young Dolph lets the crowd know how to “Run It Up.”
To close out Saturday’s festivities, Atlanta’s King aka the “Rubberband Man,” T.I. will touch down at High Life to run through his extensive catalog of hits, but it’s not all “About the Money” — Tip loves to smoke, too!
Get to High Life early on Sunday so you can slide into a spot near the stage, because every set will be one for the history books. First, up-and-comer Tee Grizzley is going to make his High Life debut and let everyone know about his “First Day Out.”
The turn-up deity Waka Flocka touches the stage next, so make sure you smoke some Sativa — you’ll be jumping around.
Stick around for recent Roc Nation signee Yo Gotti’s performance, and he may just let you know what goes “Down in the DM.”
While it will probably be sunny and gorgeous out for the duration of High Life Festival, that shouldn’t stop Sunday performer Fat Joe from making it rain on everyone in attendance.
You won’t be able to slow down for a minute, as Chicago speed demon Twista is making a very special appearance — just don’t be surprised if he breaks out a few “Slow Jamz” too.
A hip-hop hall of famer is closing out the second annual High Life Festival, as Jeezy will dole out lessons in Thug Motivation to High Lifers. We can only assume Jeezy will kill his performance, so “R.I.P.” until next year!
A two-day pass or VIP one-day pass can each be had for less than $80, so snatch up your tickets while there’s still some left here. Should you need any additional convincing, there will be an additional surprise performers on both Saturday and Sunday — don’t get left out!
