Those in the cannabis community may know 420 (National Cannabis Day) as the Holy Grail of plant-based holidays, but there’s another day becoming just as celebratory - 710. July 10th is Oil Day - flip 710 upside-down and it becomes “OIL” - and you have a time to honor concentrates and other products made with cannabis oils. For some fans, it’s known as International Dab Day because they see it as a day to partake in potent-yet-pure forms of cannabinoids such as dabs, resin, shatter, and more.
So now you know what to indulge in on 710, but where should you go? Love is all around, and so are the hottest Oil Day/Dab Day events in New York. Check out our favorites, which include some secret spots that only the “in the know” will truly know.
The Astor Club: “Life Is Not Grape” Launch
This members-only cannabis club on the Lower East Side is a New York institution. Featured often in the New York Times and highlighted in Forbes as one of the Big Apple’s most risque places to visit, you’ll actually find the atmosphere chill and inviting, though you do need to “know a guy” to get in. For Oil Day, The Astor Club will host the grower formerly known as Candy Paint, launching his new brand “Life Is Not Grape.” Which cannabis OGs will you spot in this classic “smokeasy”? Only one way to find out…
How To Attend
July 10, 6-11PM. Members only; contact @astorclubnyc on Instagram for details.
Happy Munkey: 710 Experience
Celebrate Dab Day in a big way with Happy Munkey, the award-winning cannabis lifestyle brand that has brought to the fore such activations as the Cannabis After Hours Lounge at the virally popular Immersive Van Gogh exhibit. For the 710 Experience, the coolest community partners get into the mix with an exclusive and prestigious rooftop party in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood. Special guests and performances are to be expected, while sponsors Etain, Women Grow, House of Puff, Dutchie, and Select Cannabis uplift the holistic vibes. Hors d’oeuvres and goodie bags are available for all to enjoy, while VIP admission also grants attendees an all-night open bar. Follow the Munkey to a truly elevated arena!

The members-only social club recently opened its second event space in Chelsea, where it also operates a one-of-a-kind coworking space known as Work’N’Roll for creatives to elevate and express themselves. Join the party on 710 because you’ll have a blast at Freaky Dog’s Space Station.

High Garden: Summer Nights And Sunday Brunch
A holistic and botanical experience for those seeking a high-end lifestyle, High Garden is a women-owned space like none other. Expect live music, food, drinks, and exclusive merch with a gorgeously cultivated atmosphere. Where gastronomy, mixology and wellness intersect, you’ll also find that High Garden is hosting Summer Nights and Sunday Brunch all summer long. For the 710 weekend, night owls can flock to Summer Nights to enjoy swinging musical sets and special pop-ups. On Friday July 8th see DJ BLVD and a pop-up by Vitabudz, then on Saturday July 9th DJ Mikeyy will spin, accompanied by a pop-up from 167 Exotics. Wake and bakers can gravitate to Sunday Brunch for sweet warm daytime vibes and refreshments to match.

HAZYHAUS
Deep in the heart of Manhattan beats the vibration of members- and invite-only social club HAZYHAUS, a cozy spot for both chilling and networking. It’s been the site of some excellent education, such as a recent cultivator panel hosted by the NYC Regional Committee of the New York Cannabis Growers and Processors Association. During the 710 holiday, expect that happy haze to be suffused with the joy of like-minded people trying out some special new products and having lively conversations about their favorite cannabinoids.
