Aside from warmer temps, spring break, and the return of Game of Thrones, next month we also look forward to 4/20, the biggest cannabis holiday of the year. April's most prolific canna-friendly date isn't just celebrated domestically, it's spread to all corners of the globe, especially as more countries fight for legalization.
If you're traveling abroad and looking for an event to attend so you can show your support for the cannabis movement, check out these 10 options happening in April and May.
