The dress code for the event is "dak tie," inviting guests to don their formal attire with a touch of green and cannabis accessories, setting the tone for a vibrant and elevated experience.

The event will feature live music, including performances by Lucky Lance from Team Dynamite, KP from Sunshine Sound System, and a DJ set by Russell Brown. Attendees will have the chance to immerse themselves in the world of cannabis through an engaging speaker programme with doctors, prescribers, cultivators, medical herbalists, and industry experts.

"We want to showcase the positive aspects of cannabis culture, from its therapeutic benefits to its rich history," said Abe Gray, curator of the Whakamana Cannabis Museum.

The highlight of the event will be an onsite doctor's clinic, courtesy of Cannabis Doctor, offering medicinal cannabis prescriptions and dispensing services provided by Nga Hua Pharmacy. Additionally, a dedicated consumption area will allow attendees to explore the various cannabis products in a safe and welcoming environment.

"We believe in destigmatizing adult use of cannabis and celebrating its therapeutic properties responsibly," added Gray.

The Whakamana Cannabis Museum aims to establish a permanent home at the historic Hopetoun Alpha building, and the opening event will serve as a fundraiser to achieve this goal.

Tickets for the opening night are priced at $200 each, offering an exclusive experience for attendees which includes a gift bag worth over $200. Doctor's consultations for cannabis will be available at the discounted rate of $50 per visit, with prescriptions issued and dispensed on-site.
