Chicago has been named one of the "World's Best" cities by Travel + Leisure Magazine, and for good reason. The Windy City has something to offer everyone, from history buffs to foodies to culture vultures.
And if you're a fan of cannabis, you'll be in heaven in Chicago. The city is home to a thriving cannabis industry and there are dispensaries and consumption lounges all over town.
The Governor Will Be In The House!
Governor JB Pritzker (D) will deliver the keynote address in which he'll discuss Illinois' leadership in the cannabis industry and more. Illinois was the first state in the Midwest to legalize recreational cannabis, and the state has since become a major hub for weed businesses.
