Puffcon 2026: The Complete History of Puffco's DTLA Hash Block Party

By The High Rise Co.

Published: 2026-06-30

Puffcon did not begin as another cannabis trade show.

There were no panel tracks, buyer badges, fluorescent expo aisles, or generic booths trying to speak to every corner of the market. Puffco built the event around a more focused idea: bring the people shaping modern concentrate culture into one physical space and let the hardware, hash, glass, food, music, art, and community operate as one scene.

That focus is still Puffcon’s advantage.

What began as a free gathering for Puffco owners has grown into a two-day cultural festival with major performers, more than 100 glass artists, dozens of brand activations, food curated by Smorgasburg Los Angeles, immersive installations, collector-level glass, and a public-access Sunday.

Six editions in, Puffcon is no longer just a company party. It is one of the clearest annual snapshots of where hash culture is going next.

What Is Puffcon?

Puffcon is Puffco’s annual 21-and-over block party at Los Angeles Center Studios in Downtown LA. The event brings together musicians, cannabis brands, glass artists, accessory makers, food vendors, collectors, creators, and concentrate consumers for a festival centered on hash culture.

The weekend combines:

  • Major live music and comedy
  • The Puffcon Lot brand marketplace
  • Functional-glass sales and demonstrations
  • Puffco and partner exclusives
  • Immersive art and interactive installations
  • Food curated by Smorgasburg LA
  • Community spaces, challenges, games, and a silent disco

Puffcon is not a traditional cannabis expo. It is consumer-facing, culture-first, and built for people who follow the extractors, collect the glass, use the devices, and understand why temperature, airflow, material, and technique matter.

There are no cannabis sales on-site. Brands can build activations, educate attendees, release merchandise, and showcase their work, but Puffcon does not operate as a cannabis retail market.

Puffcon 2026 takes place Saturday, October 3, and Sunday, October 4, at Los Angeles Center Studios. The sixth annual event will feature two days of music, food, glass, art, brand activations, limited releases, and community programming.

Glass, Brands, Food, and Experiences

The 2026 program includes a Glass Village featuring more than 100 artists from around the world.

Live glassblowing, collector sales, custom attachments, functional sculpture, and direct access to artists remain central to the weekend. Featured artists include Ryan Fitt, Spider, Lissa Melts, Pakoh, and Reyna Rivera, with additional participants joining the program.

Puffcon 2026 will also include:

  • More than 75 participating brands
  • Exclusive Puffcon merchandise and collaborations
  • Limited-edition product releases
  • More than 50 large-scale brand activations
  • Bear Mountain Studios’ Gauntlet Challenge

  • Jonesy’s Silent Disco
  • Immersive art installations
  • Expanded VIP experiences
  • Live glassblowing demonstrations

Smorgasburg Los Angeles returns to curate Feast Street, bringing a varied food lineup and event-exclusive dishes to the festival.

The brands get attention, but the artist floor remains the heart of Puffcon. This is one of the few major cannabis events where functional glass is treated as a primary art form instead of an accessory category.
