What is Lift?
Launched in 2016, Lift is the original large-scale cannabis trade show in Canada, serving the cannabis community as both a meeting place and a destination for discovery.

Each Lift event showcases leading-edge content and premiere exhibitors in a high-energy setting for thousands of retailers, producers, growers, investors and decision-makers. All this, plus our famous surprises and a-ha! moments.
