What is 710? The Cannabis Holiday You Need to Know About
If you’re into cannabis concentrates, you’ve probably already circled July 10 on your calendar. But if you’re thinking, “Wait… is that like 4/20’s cousin?” You’re not wrong! Welcome to 710, the holiday that celebrates all things oil, wax, shatter, live resin, live rosin and classic hash. It’s like 4/20, but specifically for hash heads. And yes, there’s a reason it’s called 710!
How 710 Got Its Start
Unlike 4/20, which has roots going all the way back to the 1970s, 710 is a more modern addition to cannabis culture. It started popping up in online forums and among concentrate connoisseurs sometime around 2011. The first official 710 event is believed to have happened in California, where early extract artists and hashmakers were already refining their craft and building a cult following.
As concentrates became more accessible and mainstream, the holiday spread like a fresh dab on a hot nail. Now, 710 is an internationally recognized celebration of extraction artistry. Events, brand drops, and concentrate competitions happen coast to coast, with dispensaries (like us!) getting in on the fun by offering epic sales on oils, waxes, shatter, and vape carts.
Who Celebrates 710 and Why?
710 is for anyone who appreciates the art of cannabis concentrates. That means daily dabbers who love high-potency hits, vape pen fans who prefer a cleaner puff, and even the canna-curious who are just dipping their toes into the extract pool. If you’ve ever admired the glistening beauty of cured rosin or geeked out over terpene profiles, 710 is basically your version of New Year’s Eve.
It’s also a day that celebrates innovation in the industry. Extraction tech has come a long way. from sketchy homemade setups to sophisticated solventless labs producing premium full-spectrum products. Whether you’re using a handheld dab straw or a Bluetooth-enabled e-rig, you’re part of a constantly evolving community that’s pushing cannabis forward.
How to Celebrate 710 (Without Going Too Hard)
The golden rule for any 710 sesh? Start low and go slow. Concentrates are potent by design (some clock in at 80 to 90 percent THC) so it’s totally okay to take baby dabs and savor the experience. A well-timed hit from a live resin cart or a flavorful terp-heavy dab can be just the thing to elevate your day without overdoing it.
Whether you’re kicking back solo or celebrating with your crew, the best way to enjoy 710 is with your favorite products and a chill vibe. Throw on a good playlist, crack open a cold drink, and treat it like the cannabis appreciation day it is. Bonus points if you support local by grabbing your goodies from your neighborhood dispensary.
