About Cannabis Europa London

Cannabis Europa London is Europe's flagship policy and investment conference, held at The Barbican in London on May 26–27, 2026. Organized by Prohibition Partners, the event takes a curated, senior-level approach focused on the strategic and financial dimensions of the cannabis industry.

The conference includes the Business of Cannabis Awards ceremony, recognizing leadership and innovation in European cannabis. VIP tickets include access to a networking party that has become one of the most valuable relationship-building events in the European cannabis calendar.

Programming Focus

  • M&A activity: Deal flow, valuations, and consolidation trends in European cannabis
  • Investment landscape: Capital flows, fund formation, and exit strategies
  • Pricing strategy: Wholesale and retail pricing dynamics across European markets
  • Market access: Regulatory navigation for entering specific European jurisdictions
  • Policy development: EU-level and country-specific regulatory tracking

Why It Matters for US Professionals

For US cannabis companies, Europe represents the most significant international expansion opportunity. Germany's adult-use legalization, the UK's medical market, and emerging frameworks in Switzerland, Czech Republic, and Malta all require sophisticated market understanding. Cannabis Europa London is the single best venue for US executives to gain that understanding through direct engagement with European policymakers, investors, and operators.

The Curated Approach

Unlike larger trade shows, Cannabis Europa is deliberately limited in scope. The audience is senior decision-makers: CEOs, investors, fund managers, attorneys, and policymakers. This creates an environment where the people you meet have the authority to make decisions, not just the interest in attending events.

Pair with Other European Events

Cannabis Europa is positioned in late May, which conveniently aligns with several other European cannabis events — including World Class Cannabis Business Europe in Frankfurt (May 19–20) and CannaTrade Zürich (May 29–31).
