Secure Judges Kit

Where Access
Becomes Responsibility.

The Judges Kit is the main tier that puts you inside the competition.

This tier gives you and a guest the full VIP experience at the event, but more importantly, your score is part of what decides the winner. You are not watching the results happen from the outside. You are one of the people who determined them before the doors ever opened.

King of Jars runs two categories, Rosin and Flower, with thirty entries competing in each. Every entry is distributed blind and randomized. Each Judges Kit receives the same entries in a different order. Judges complete scoring online privately over a 30 day window. By the time the event happens in Los Angeles on September 19, the work is done and the results are ready to be revealed live.

Each Judges Kit applies to one category of your choice. You receive the full judging package, full VIP access, and a complete kit built to let you evaluate every entry properly on your own setup. The structure is controlled, the process is protected, and the result belongs to the judges.
