Cannadelic Miami 2025–a Review
Cannadelic Miami 2025, held on May 23–24 at the Miami Airport Convention Center, stood as a vibrant convergence of cannabis, psychedelics, and holistic wellness. With 30 vendors, speakers, and hundreds of conscious and curious attendees, the event offered a dynamic blend of education, activism, and community engagement in the heart of Miami.
Moksha Gallery: A Nexus of Authentic Art
A standout feature for me was the Moksha Gallery, which showcased visionary art that resonated deeply with the themes of consciousness and healing, psychedelics, and a glimpse into the world of visionaries. The gallery provided attendees with an immersive experience, highlighting the intersection of art and psychedelia. This space not only celebrated artistic expression but also fostered conversations around the role of art in spiritual and therapeutic journeys. Having Moksha as part of this event solidified the authenticity needed in the space.
Illuminating Talks and Panels
The conference boasted an impressive lineup of speakers who discussed various facets of plant medicine and their societal implications. Dr. Angela Fisher, founder of Bionic Bloom, presented on the Empowerment-Based Integrated Treatment (EBiT) model, emphasizing trauma-informed care and the integration of psychedelics in therapy.

Michael Mindari, known as the “Legal Hemp Expert,” provided insights into the evolving legal landscape of hemp and cannabinoids, addressing the complexities and opportunities within the industry.
Panel talks also tackled rising topics such as cannabis tourism, (which I had the humbling opportunity to moderate), as well as marketing strategies in the cannabis and psychedelics sectors, with experts like Douglas K. Gordon highlighting the importance of Jamaican legacy and the ever-growing cannabis market.
Saturday Night After-Party at FunDimension
The Cannadelic Miami 2025 after-party on Saturday night transformed FunDimension in Wynwood into a vibrant, consumption-friendly celebration, perfectly encapsulating the event’s fusion of cannabis culture, psychedelics, and holistic wellness. This experience extended the day’s explorations late into the night, I don’t usually stay up late, but I wasn’t going to miss this. The space offered attendees a dynamic space to unwind, connect, and revel in shared passions. We grabbed our own cabana and seshes all night.

FunDimension is renowned for its cutting-edge entertainment offerings and provided an ideal backdrop for the festivities. Guests engaged in a plethora of activities, including a full arcade, laser tag, bumper cars, rock climbing, virtual reality adventures, and duckpin bowling. The venue buzzed with energy as attendees engaged in friendly competition and nostalgic play, all while surrounded by an uplifting and inclusive atmosphere.
The outdoor courtyard served as a designated consumption-friendly area, where guests could safely enjoy cannabis in a relaxed, open-air setting. This thoughtful touch reinforced Cannadelic’s mission to de-stigmatize plant medicine and provide spaces that celebrate mindful use and connection.
Sixteen DJs kept the vibes high throughout the night, as indoor and outdoor stages thumped and boomed, curating an eclectic mix of music that flowed across multiple zones—from chill, psychedelic deep-house sets to high-energy dance beats. With vibrant lights and immersive visuals, the music transformed FunDimension into a multi-sensory playground for exploration and celebration.

In addition to the entertainment, a curated lineup of vendors filled the venue with unique products, including handmade art, holistic wellness items, and cannabis accessories. These offerings provided attendees the chance to engage with local Miami creators and entrepreneurs in a more intimate, community-focused setting.
Activism and Community Building
Cannadelic Miami 2025 was not just a conference but a movement toward destigmatization and policy reform. The event emphasized the importance of education and advocacy in advancing the acceptance and integration of plant medicines into mainstream society.
Attendees engaged in discussions around legalization, ethical practices, and the need for inclusive access to therapeutic modalities. It’s clear to see that the passion is real and the people want to see change happen sooner rather than later. We all know that change has started in Miami.

Networking and Collaborative Opportunities
The conference provided ample networking opportunities, bringing together professionals, enthusiasts, and newcomers. Workshops, wellness activities, and vendor exhibitions facilitated connections and collaborations, fostering a sense of community and shared purpose.
The presence of institutions like Sacred Bloom College of Healing Arts underscored the event’s commitment to education and the cultivation of future leaders in the field. I enjoyed the sound baths and light deprivation areas which helped me cool off and unwind from the Florida heat.
In essence, Cannadelic Miami 2025 served as a beacon for those passionate about the intersection of plant medicine, art, and holistic healing, setting the stage for continued growth and innovation in these transformative fields. If you’re not planning your “trip” for next year, you should get on it and follow the beacon yourself.
