Happy Camper is closing two of its dispensaries to open a bigger location in NoDa on Saturday, March 1.
Why it matters: The popular brand has grown tremendously since opening its first brick-and-mortar store and a cannabis consumption lounge. Its owners hope consolidating the two locations will help meet the growing demand.
What to expect: The new location will have an indoor smoking lounge, Michael Angelicola says.
- It'll also have a larger inventory of THCA and CBD products, from edibles to vapes, with some new goods, including merchandise, slushie pouches, and more elixir cocktail options.
The vibe: The new Happy Camper will be inside one of the former Canvas Tattoo houses along Davidson Street with plenty of bar and lounge seating.
- Outside, there will be some rocking chairs on the front porch, picnic tables, a dog park and a parking lot that can fit between 15 and 20 cars.
Driving the news: With a larger space, Happy Camper plans to host more events, starting with its grand opening party on March 1 from 12-8pm that'll have live music, food trucks, vendors, and giveaways.
- Following the opening it'll offer 4/20 related events plus free live concerts this summer.
- Happy Camper's other two locations — in NoDa and Optimist Park — will close on Feb. 28.
Zoom in: In addition, the shop will continue to use its three mobile campers to provide consumers with grab-and-go products at local events throughout the year.
Stop by: Find the new Happy Camper at 2918 N. Davidson St. It'll be open Monday through Wednesday 10am-10pm, Thursday 10am-12am, Friday 9am-12am and Sunday 9am-10pm.
What's next: Happy Camper plans to open a grab-and-go dispensary in Dilworth (321 East Blvd.) on March 7.
- Its Dilworth location will be open Monday through Thursday 10am-9pm, Friday and Saturday 9am-10pm and Sunday 9am-8pm.
- They also plan to open another location near Lake Norman in Denver in a few months.
