The countdown has begun. Nearly a century after the inaugural New Year\u2019s Eve celebration in Manhattan\u2019s iconic Times Square, a new countdown is happening on April 20 to commemorate\u2014and celebrate\u2014New York\u2019s first 420 in the legal market. The trailblazing event is a collaboration between European cannabis seed producer Royal Queen Seeds and Cannabis Now<\/em>,\u00a0with the support of Honeysuckle Media and Omnichanel Outdoor, demonstrating cannabis\u2019 global expansion.<\/p>\n

The official Royal Queen Seeds<\/a> Times Square \u201cCannabis Is Legal\u201d countdown celebration begins on April 20 at 3:30 pm with a countdown leading up to 4:20 pm.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have so much to celebrate, and there\u2019s no better place for a countdown than Times Square,\u201d Shai Ramsahai, CEO of Royal Queen Seeds, says. \u201cThis 4\/20, we\u2019re excited to celebrate how growers, both in their industrial crops and now their own homes have the freedom to grow in the US.\u201d<\/p>\n

The seeds of change have been planted in Manhattan.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Since 1907, hundreds of thousands of people have flocked to New York City\u2019s most famous neighborhood, Times Square, to be part of the excitement, creating a festive and electric atmosphere for New Year\u2019s Eve celebrations. The energy of the crowd, the bright lights and the anticipation of the Ball Drop make Times Square a unique and famous destination for New Year\u2019s Eve celebrations, and the event has become deeply entrenched in popular culture. But unlike the traditional year-end celebrations in the heart of the Big Apple, The One Times Square Billboard will be ablaze with a once-unimaginable cannabis countdown.<\/p>\n

The milestone is more than just a celebration of the unofficial cannabis holiday<\/a>. Rather, it reflects the changing public opinion of cannabis legalization and is an empirical reflection of the changing cannabis landscape, like the dawn of a new era.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor more than a decade,\u00a0Cannabis Now<\/em>\u00a0has promoted the industry via our national magazine, our website and at numerous live events,\u201d Eugenio Garcia, CEO of Cannabis Now,<\/em> says. \u201cJoining with Royal Queen Seeds in New York\u2019s Times Square, is a historic moment to demonstrate that cannabis has expanded globally and it\u2019s perfect to celebrate this at the heartbeat of the world, Times Square.\u201d<\/p>\n

Join the party at One Times Square<\/a> at 3.30 pm and celebrate the 420 countdown with joints and revelry to mark the historic occasion.<\/p>\n
