✨ BIG ANNOUNCEMENT on Location Change ✨

We’re happy to announce details of the 1st Annual Jersey Fire Awards this fall on Friday, November 21st, at the Lobby Nightclub, located at 821 Spring Street in Elizabeth!

The Jersey Fire Awards will be a great party where we honor the d!spens@ries, gr@wers, innovators, and pioneers who make the NJ c@nn@b*s scene and market special. ✨

Heady NJ Editor and Publisher Dan Ulloa will be the host of what should be a memorable event.

We are working with Garden State of Mind to produce a great show. They have been building an authentic 🥦 community across Jersey for years.

Noted 🥦 entrepreneur and advocate Mario Ramos of I Bud You is also helping to promote and manage the event.

The Jersey Fire Awards will be decided by the great people of the New Jersey 🥦 community who will come and decide. We are planning on an in-person voting system.

Alongside the ceremony and celebration inside the banquet hall, guests can step outside to a dedicated tent where 🥦 consumption is welcomed. This vibrant space will also feature one of Garden State of Mind’s signature Paint and P@ff experiences, creating the perfect blend of creativity, community, and good vibes.
