On July 10th, concentrate fans across the United States turn up the heat—literally. Known as “710,” the holiday flips “OIL” upside down and celebrates all things extracts, dabs, vape culture, and terpene-rich innovation. Over the past decade, 710 has evolved into a full-scale cultural moment, drawing connoisseurs, brands, and curious newcomers to some of the most lively cannabis events in the country. From desert blowouts to urban seshes, the celebrations continue to grow bigger, louder, and more creative each year.
One of the most anticipated gatherings takes place in Los Angeles, where the city’s mix of artistry and concentrate mastery shines. Events like 710 LA Sesh and brand-hosted pop-ups bring together extract labs, glassblowers, and live music for a full-day immersion into California’s concentrate culture. Attendees sample rosin drops, meet award-winning hash makers, and enjoy limited-edition live-resin carts that often debut exclusively for the holiday. The atmosphere balances festival energy with education, giving consumers a chance to experience the craft behind their favorite extracts.
Further north, the Bay Area keeps its own 710 legacy thriving. Oakland and San Francisco have become hotspots for dab-centric gatherings that blend underground culture with modern cannabis innovation. Glass showcases, “terp tours,” and invite-only brand parties create a scene that feels both rebellious and refined. Collectors line up early for custom rigs and pendants from well-known artists, while local cultivators host tasting sessions highlighting small-batch rosin and solventless craftsmanship.
Across the Rockies, Denver transforms 710 into a multi-day showcase of Colorado’s pioneering extract community. Dispensaries run concentrate specials, lounges host dab bars and educational workshops, and outdoor venues come alive with DJs and live art. Denver’s “710 Fair” has grown into a beloved tradition, featuring everything from cold-cure rosin competitions to glassblowing demonstrations. For many, it’s the most immersive way to experience the full spectrum of Colorado’s extract culture.
Down in the desert, Las Vegas continues to evolve as a premier 710 destination. With consumption lounges opening throughout the city, July 10th has quickly become a marquee weekend for Sin City’s cannabis scene. Tourists and locals pack lounges for terp-focused tasting menus, rosin-pressing experiences, and DJ-driven nightlife events themed around concentrates. Major dispensaries join the excitement with city-wide drops and 710-exclusive products, making Vegas one of the country’s fastest-growing hotspots for the holiday.
On the opposite coast, New York City puts its own creative spin on 710. Pop-up dab bars, rooftop sessions, and underground tasting events give the holiday an East Coast flair. NYC’s extract culture—powered by craft brands from New York, Maine, and Massachusetts—focuses on artisan rosin, boutique growers, and community-driven gatherings. It’s a scene where culture and creativity are just as important as potency.
No matter the city, 710 continues to expand as a celebration of artistry, extraction science, and community. As cannabis culture evolves, so does the holiday, offering enthusiasts more places than ever to meet, dab, learn, and celebrate the craft that defines the concentrate movement.
