KZN, it's your turn to make your voice heard! 🏆The legendary Amber Cup is on tour, and The Branch is the exclusive public judging stop in all of KwaZulu-Natal. This is your one and only chance in the province to help decide who has the finest dabs in the land!
🔥 IMPORTANT: This is the official KZN Public Judging event, not the final ceremony. You are the judges! The final winner will be crowned on October 4th.
This is a multi-faceted event designed for the whole community. Whether you’re a seasoned grower, an extraction artist, a patient exploring wellness, a curious newcomer, or just here for the incredible vibes, this day is for you.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
🗳️ BE THE JUDGE: The core of the day! Head upstairs to the official judging station to sample and cast your vote on this year's Amber Cup entries. Learn from the experts at Medusa Dabs who will be on hand to guide you.
🎓 EDUCATE & ELEVATE: Immerse yourself in a full day of powerful talks from industry leaders. We're covering cultivation, legality, wellness, psilocybin, and more in our dedicated speaker room. (Full schedule below!)
🎶 VIBE & CHILL: The masters from Elevated Adventures are curating the atmosphere! They're bringing the sound, the music, and a dedicated outdoor, open-air chill zone for you to relax and connect. The upstairs lounge is also a designated smoking area.
