J Day is a worldwide protest against prohibition and a celebration of Kiwi cannabis culture, held on the first Saturday in May every year. This is the 27th Annual national day of action supporting cannabis law reform, including safe legal access to medicinal cannabis.

NORML and our cannabis law reform friends organise free events nationwide to mark the occasion. These usually take the form of music, speeches and stalls in a park or suitable location. J Day is where you can meet like-minded people, relax without fear, learn how you can help make cannabis legal, join NORML and meet us too!

  • Whangarei – Pohe Island

  • Auckland – Albert Park (feat Yoko-Zuna, SWIDT, Melodownz, Jafa Mafia DJs)
