Grab a kind bud and head over to Allegheny Commons Park East this Sunday for the free Pittsburgh Cannabis Fest.

The intrigue: The annual festival brings together licensed Pennsylvania medical cannabis operators, over 100 vendors, live music, a food court, and opportunities for cannabis education and advocacy, according to a press release.

State of play: Recreational cannabis is still illegal in Pennsylvania. The festival is about connecting medical-marijuana users and new potential patients to operators, vendors and advocacy groups that can elaborate on the legal world of cannabis.

Reminder: You can’t actually smoke or toke or partake in marijuana products at the festival.

Pro tip: A medical-marijuana card is not required to attend.

If you go: Allegheny Commons Park East, near the corner of East Ohio Street and Cedar Avenue, North Side.

Sunday from 11am-5pm.
