Book now for the Cannabis Cup 2009

22nd CANNABIS CUP 2009

Book now for the Cannabis Cup 2009 and we give you an original Flying Pig grinder AND 10% discount on your stay. There you go! Save your money to buy weed instead.

Make your booking @ flyingpig.nl and put in the special code: CANNABIS.

For the ones who don’t know: the Cannabis Cup is one of the most famous events amongst cannabis smokers and cannabis-oriented businesses. And the whole city celebrates, so also for the non-cannabis-lovers: great parties everywhere, check our Amsterdam Agenda to see what’s happening.

The public helps judging loads of different types of marijuana. They decide which is the best new product, best booth, best glass, best hash and best Nederhash. A team of VIP judges decide which seed company brought the best marijuana. Many tourists go to Amsterdam to attend the festival.

If you think your THC tolerance can handle this event, then be smart and book your judge’s pass now and also a (still available) cheap bed at the Flying Pig. The Cup is each year held during the week of Thanksgiving, this year from November 22nd – 26th 2009.

Cannabis Cup

Judge’s passes cost $250 and includes admission to all ceremonies, concerts, seminars and the expo for five days, an event t-shirt and program guide, free bus tours to and from the expo, and the right to vote.

Click here to get your pass now!
For more information and FAQ about the event, check out the website http://hightimes.com and to be totally organized, book your bed here: http://www.flyingpig.nl/.

Of course, the Flying Pig Uptown, Downtown and also Beach hostels will be in the theme of Cannabis, Cannabis, Cannabis.
We always have our own competition too and the indoor and outdoor smoking areas (with lounge stages!) will be the ultimate place to chill out after having judged all different types of marijuana. Of course the bar will be open all the time too.
