The Live Reveal.
The Full Event.
General Admission gives you entry into King of Jars on September 19 in Los Angeles, where the competition closes and the winners are revealed live in front of the people who understand exactly what it means.
This is a full scale 8PG event. The crowd is real. The brands are real. The production is serious. By the time doors open, the judging has already been completed privately and the results are locked. What you are stepping into is the live reveal, the 8PG event environment you can expect, and the energy that comes with a result that has been earned.
King of Jars is built around two categories, Rosin and Flower. Thirty entries compete in each. Both first place winners take $20,000, with an additional $5,000 People's Choice award voted on at the event. This is where those results are announced.
General Admission is not limited access. This is full entry into the event itself. You are there for the awards, the brands, the activations, the food, the crowd, the creators, and the atmosphere that makes 8PG what it is.
