Flowers & Flowers Fest LA: Art, Small Biz & BIPOC in Cannabis

Los Angeles is on a mission to make sure that no one thinks the cool things happening in cannabis are restricted to New York these days. It’s time to get lit like only the left coast can with the 2nd Annual Flowers and Flowers Fest, presented by BIKO Flower and Plant Bitch LA. This unique flower-powered experience on Saturday, March 18th is a perfect mix of underground music talent, creative vendors, live activations, and fun immersive offerings by a carefully curated collection of cannabis brands.

What is the Flowers and Flowers Fest?

"You know what's better than a bouquet of buds? A whole festival celebrating them!” says Aryana Gathings, founder of Plant Bitch LA and co–presenter of Flowers and Flowers Fest. “Flowers and Flowers Fest is my baby, and I'm so proud to see it come to life. From the live music and DJ lineup to the amazing vendors and art installations, this festival isn’t just a vibe… it’s a whole damn mood! We have set out to create the perfect place to chill out, spark up, and let loose like only LA can.”

Housed in The Dream Factory – Culver City’s preeminent creative arts space – Flowers and Flowers is a unique, uplifting canna-loving experience that is all about celebrating art, culture, and small businesses while shining a spotlight on creative people of all colors. With more surprises that we can list out here, one of Team Honeysuckle’s favorite elements is the immersive botanical lounge that will serve as a transformative space, an oasis within the mix allowing attendees to fully escape the urban jungle and concrete gardens so commonplace in the greater LA area. Marry this with the strong creative and musical line up ranging from Kara Connolly to Amanda Joy, and you’ve got the perfect soundtrack for an elevated state.

"This is truly the only festival of its kind, celebrating not only the beauty of cannabis but also the creativity and culture of our community,” says Timeka Drew, founder of BIKO Flower and co-presenter of Flowers and Flowers Fest. “We are deeply connected to the communities in which we live and our creative take on experiences, we’ve made an entire day dedicated to uplifting and empowering people of all colors and lovers of cannabis culture that’s fun, funky, and always Gucci.”
