TedFest 2025 Lights Up Downtown LA with Music, Cannabis, and Culture
On Sunday, August 31st, Teds Budz made sure Los Angeles wrapped the summer on the highest note with TedFest 2025 — a celebration that blended cannabis, music, and culture into a single unforgettable experience.
Set against the urban backdrop of 1005 Mateo Street in Downtown LA, the festival transformed the space from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. into a buzzing hub of energy. From the moment doors opened, the crowd poured in, eager for an atmosphere that felt part block party, part cultural summit, and all about community.
A Festival Built on Experience
TedFest wasn’t just another event — it was a carefully curated vibe. Fans lined up for meet & greets with artists, snagging exclusive box releases and merch drops that gave the day a collector’s edge. The air was filled with the smells of food trucks serving festival favorites, while DJs kept the tempo alive with sets that carried the afternoon seamlessly into nightfall.
VIP ticket holders enjoyed early entry and gift boxes, plus access to private lounges that offered a chance to network, chill, and recharge away from the main floor. Meanwhile, the general admission crowd packed the space shoulder to shoulder, creating that electric tension only live music and shared passion can deliver.
The Soundtrack of the Streets
As the sun set over Los Angeles, the spotlight shifted to the stage where an all-star lineup brought TedFest to life. Smoke DZA delivered lyrical precision with his signature Harlem swagger, while G Perico repped LA with raw, unfiltered storytelling. B Legit, a Bay Area legend, brought decades of game to the mic, and of course, Cornfed Ted himself took the stage, embodying the energy and vision that fuels Teds Budz.
Each performance felt like its own chapter, but together they told a story of cannabis and hip-hop as inseparable forces of culture. The crowd wasn’t just watching — they were participating, rapping along, waving branded boxes in the air, and moving in sync with the basslines that rattled Mateo Street.
More Than Music
What makes TedFest stand out is its dedication to the community. Beyond the stage, the festival highlighted the artistry and entrepreneurship that fuel the cannabis industry. Exclusive product drops gave fans access to strains and collabs they couldn’t get anywhere else, turning TedFest into part festival, part marketplace. Vendors connected directly with consumers, while the energy of hip-hop bridged generational and regional divides.
This wasn’t just a concert — it was a celebration of cannabis culture in its purest form, where music and community came together under one roof. From the smallest detail in merch design to the carefully chosen lineup, every piece of TedFest 2025 echoed the ethos of Teds Budz: authentic, bold, and deeply rooted in the streets.
Cementing Its Legacy
By the time the final track faded and the crowd spilled back into the LA night, one thing was clear: TedFest has secured its spot as a must-attend annual event. For fans, artists, and the wider cannabis community, it’s not just a festival — it’s a statement.
Teds Budz once again proved why it’s more than a brand. It’s a movement, a gathering place, and a driving force for culture. And if TedFest 2025 is any indication, the future of this celebration will only get bigger, louder, and higher
