Barcelona is preparing to host the 20th edition of Spannabis, the largest cannabis fair in the world, on the 15th, 16th and 17th of March. This event is expected to host around 300 stands and tens of thousands of visitors from more than fifty countries, who will travel to Barcelona to participate in the fair and exhibition's most diverse offerings. This year, Spannabis will also take place in September, in Bilbao, on the 20th, 21st and 22nd of September.
The global cannabis market is rapidly expanding, driven by the growing acceptance of medicinal and recreational cannabis, as well as industrial hemp. As more countries move towards decriminalization and legalization, the popularity and widespread acceptance of cannabis continues to increase every year.
Taking place at the usual Fira de Cornellà in Barcelona, Spannabis will become the global center of the cannabis industry for three full days, offering exhibitors, professionals and visitors the opportunity to explore the latest trends in the sector, watch conferences, look for potential clients and establish new connections.
Spannabis has around 300 exhibitors spread over more than 24.000 square meters, making it the main meeting of the world's leading cannabis companies. Among these companies is Mills, the main sponsor of the exhibition and an important player in research and innovation in the field of cannabis.
The 12th edition of World Cannabis Conference will bring together scientific leaders, doctors, politicians, businesspeople and industry representatives to explore the diverse potential of this controversial plant through various open forums, breakout sessions and topic-specific conferences.
In addition to business and educational aspects, music will also occupy a central place at Spannabis, with performances from artists such as Pirat's Sund Sistema, Tetra Hydro K, Mystical HiFi, Afrikan Warrios, LadyFunk and many others yet to be confirmed.
A Spannabis Champions Cup It is the main Cannabis Cup in Spain and one of the most renowned worldwide. Every year, leading professionals in the field come together to compete for recognition as the best in a wide range of categories.

With a professional background in CAD technical drawing (2D and 3D), João Xabregas is an activist and advocate for all uses and applications of cannabis. He discovered and entered the world of cannabis during his youth, where he developed a special interest in the cultivation of the plant, which led him on a journey of self-learning through the world of cannabis that continues to this day. His adventures linked to cannabis cultivation began with the same goal as many others: to be able to guarantee the quality and eliminate any possible risks to his health of what he consumed, as well as to avoid any type of dependence on the illicit market. However, he quickly began to view the world of cannabis and everything related to it with a very different perspective. He admits the enormous passion he has for the most persecuted plant in the world and about which he is always willing to write and have a good conversation.
