The International Cannabis Business Conference (ICBC) will hold its tenth Berlin edition from 13 to 15 April 2027 at the Estrel Hotel. Organisers expect more than 7,500 trade visitors from over 80 countries, according to Hanf Magazin.
Key points
- ICBC Berlin runs from 13 to 15 April 2027 at the Estrel Hotel.
- More than 7,500 attendees from over 80 countries are expected, including 500+ cannabis pharmacies.
- Early-bird prices end on 18 November 2026; the final programme is still to come.
The ICBC Berlin cannabis conference is a B2B event, not a consumer show. It focuses on purchasing, distribution and regulation, and draws professionals who have worked with cannabis since Germany legalised medical use, as Hanf Magazin reports.
Who is expected in Berlin
Organisers describe the event as the largest cannabis trade exhibition in Europe and the longest-running. They expect more than 500 cannabis pharmacies, which they call the biggest gathering of European cannabis pharmacies.
The attendee list also includes:
- licensed producers
- European and international distributors and wholesalers
- pharmacy buyers from Germany and Great Britain
- European growshops and Cannabis Social Clubs
Sponsors include High Tide, Sanity, Organigram, Aurora Medicine, DEMECAN, CANNA AGRI, Four 20 Pharma, True Terpenes, PHCann and Tilray.
Three days, one tight schedule
The first day, 13 April, is for arrival and registration. Pre-registration runs from 2 pm to 9 pm, followed by a VIP reception from 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm.
On 14 April, registration opens at 7 am, and halls and talks run from 9 am to 6 pm. An after-party starts at 9 pm and ends at 12:30 am.
The last day, 15 April, opens registration at 8 am, with halls and programme from 9 am to 5 pm.
New formats and a second stage
This edition adds a second stage on the fairground. New formats include speed networking, workshops, lounges with food and drink, and an Outdoor Consumption Lounge.
Meetups are planned for countries, Social Clubs and pharmacies. Organisers also announce meet-and-greets with public figures. They say more than 80% of partners return every year, and that exhibition space is close to selling out.
Tickets and early-bird deadline
Licensed pharmacies, growshops and Cannabis Social Clubs receive free tickets. Early-bird rates end on 18 November 2026, after which prices rise.
Programme still provisional
The names of keynote speakers and panellists have not been released. Organisers call the agenda provisional, and the final programme is due before the event.
What it changes for you
If you are a consumer, nothing changes directly: the conference is closed to the general public in practice, as a trade show. It could still signal where the European market is heading, since regulation and distribution are on the agenda.
If you follow the sector, the coming programme may show which topics matter most to professionals. For everyday reading on the legal European range, see our CBD flower collection or the full product range. Every Spliff product is lab-tested: THC content below 0.3% (0% for vapes and pods).
