For the first time, a 'cannabis garden' will set up next to Grand Old Day
Grand Old Day is looking a little different in 2025. It's not back to bringing in splashy national acts to perform along the St. Paul corridor, but it has one of its best musical lineups in many years.
It'll also have a "cannabis garden" alongside its beer gardens for the first time in its more than 50-year history.
Most of its six stages will have beer gardens, but the Nothing But Canna stage will instead, appropriately, serve THC drinks.
The stage is sponsored by Nothing But Hemp, which will sell drinks from its patio next to the stage at Grotto Street and Grand.
Representatives for the festival tell Bring Me the News that there will not be any on-street sales for cannabis products, but existing Grand Avenue businesses can sell their existing, legal THC products in-store.
The Nothing But Canna stage will feature the International Reggae Allstars featuring Singing Tony throughout the day.
Grand Old Day takes place on Sunday, June 1, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. More details can be found at the Grand Avenue Business Association's website.
