European cannabis events in 2025: Spannabis, Mary Jane and Cannafest

A historical guide to three documented 2025 events, their venues, dates and different combinations of exhibitions, conferences and festival programming.

Three events, three parts of the year

The 2025 European cannabis calendar included Spannabis near Barcelona in March, Mary Jane Berlin in June and Cannafest Prague in November. Their programmes combined exhibitions, professional exchange and public interest in different ways. This is a historical overview of the 2025 editions, not a current booking calendar. The useful distinction is the format: an exhibition stand, a conference session and a festival programme offer different kinds of experience.

Spannabis: Cornellà, 14–16 March

Fira de Cornellà's announcement placed Spannabis on 14, 15 and 16 March 2025. The venue described three days bringing together exhibitors, professionals and visitors, with industry developments, conferences and opportunities for professional contacts. Cornellà de Llobregat is the specific host municipality, rather than a central Barcelona exhibition address. The event's appeal lay in concentrating a broad cannabis-related industry gathering in one place, with both exhibition activity and discussion.

Mary Jane Berlin: trade day and public weekend

The organiser's 2025 ticket record gives Messe Berlin as the venue and 19–22 June as the overall period. Thursday 19 June was the dedicated trade-visitor day, including a professional conference and business lounge. Public three-day tickets covered Friday 20 to Sunday 22 June. This separation matters to the event's character: the professional day emphasised business exchange, while the public weekend offered the wider fair and festival setting. The two formats were related but not interchangeable.

Cannafest Prague: 7–9 November

Cannafest's organiser described its fifteenth edition at PVA Expo Prague Letňany from 7 to 9 November 2025. The advertised exhibition included hemp cosmetics, textiles and food alongside equipment and accessories. A professional conference ran through the fair and was included for visitors holding a valid event ticket. The range of materials and product categories made this a broader hemp and cannabis exhibition, with educational and commercial elements sharing the programme.

What distinguished the experiences

Spannabis supplied a spring industry meeting near Barcelona; Mary Jane clearly separated professional and public attendance days; Cannafest paired an autumn exhibition with a conference and a wide range of hemp uses. These differences help explain why the events attracted audiences with different interests. Someone interested in materials or cosmetics would look at different programme elements from someone following policy or professional networks. The documented dates and formats describe the 2025 editions only; they provide a useful record of that year's event culture without carrying forward old tickets, prices or venue assumptions into a later year.
