  • While we were unable to attend in person due to a last minute Jangus gig, in all our communications with Tim, Cannabis Culture Film Festival ran a clean, classy festival that we wished we could have been at. Everything seemed to be organized. The various promotional materials were put together great. The programming was fun and curated and the Fest provided brief feedback on the screening. We hope to be able to attend in the future.

  • Loved Tim and Cannabis Culture Fest. Despite the online format I feel like they did a great job marketing and promoting and sharing with cannabis businesses and the general public. We won Best Short Film and they even sent us an award at no additional cost! Thanks again to their team and we would enter again in a heartbeat.
