Boston, pull out the suit. The Best in Grass Massachusetts Awards Show takes over Royale on Tremont Street on Thursday, November 19, 2026, and it's the closest thing this state has to the cannabis Oscars. Cocktail attire. Black tie. Gold on the line.
The People Picked the Winners
This isn't a panel of insiders handing out trophies to their friends. Best in Grass puts the judging in the hands of everyday Massachusetts consumers. Licensed growers and producers dropped off their best products at INSA in Easthampton back in July, judge kits launched August 1 through a network of dispensaries across the state, and regular people scored everything at home until the October 4 deadline. Visual appeal, aroma, taste: all of it got graded, anonymously.
Now the envelopes get opened live on stage.
What's on the Line
The 2026 Massachusetts kits covered flower (indica, sativa and hybrid), infused and non-infused pre-rolls, concentrates, solventless concentrates, vape pens, rosin vape pens, gummies, non-gummy edibles and beverages. That's a lot of categories, and a lot of brands walking in hoping to walk out with bragging rights for the next 12 months.
The Night Itself
Royale's calendar lists the show from 6 to 10 PM, 21+ only. Expect a live DJ, brand activations and red-carpet networking with growers, dispensary teams, judges and the people who keep Massachusetts cannabis moving. Tickets are on Eventbrite and DICE. If you're a competing cultivator, producer or dispensary partner, or a judge who finished 100% of your scoring, check your inbox: Best in Grass says you get in free.
Royale sits in the Theater District at 279 Tremont St, a short walk from Boylston on the Green Line and Tufts Medical Center on the Orange Line. Leave the car at home.
Why It Matters Right Now
Weeks after Massachusetts voters kept adult-use cannabis legal, this is the industry's first big black-tie moment to celebrate the people who make it work. Stack Pack Media plans to be on the carpet, so keep your eyes on @stackpack for the looks, the wins and the reactions.
Dress sharp. Pull up. See who takes the gold.
For adults 21+ only. Please consume responsibly.
