What type of pipe?: You want to have an edge on the other runners and get really baked? Make a gas mask pipe. Bret Stern writes that after you remove the exhale valve at the base of the mask you can “Breath 100% purified air.” You might not win the race while running high but you’re winning in your own way!


SPLIFF Fest 2019

Portland, Oregon 97214

Revolution Hall at 1300 SE Stark St.

Saturday, April 20, 2019

The SPLIFF film festival presented by Portland Mercury and Portland’s Finest showcases short films in a multitude of genres that explore and examine recreational marijuana use. The event starts at 6pm PST and tickets cost $24.49 with fees.


What type of pipe?: It's discreet. It's obvious. And you do it because you are a sensitive artist attending a film festival. Bret Stern recommends someone in your case use a crayon pipe for a little extra inspiration. Make sure to bring a pad of paper to not look suspicious.

The Liberty Belle - Rocks Off Concert Cruise

New York, New York 10002

299 South Street Pier 36

Saturday, April 20, 2019

This 21+ party boat leaves the harbor at 7:00pm EST and doors open at 6:00pm EST. They are very serious about departure time so plan on taking your last hit of the early evening at 4:20pm EST and then head yourself over to the harbor. Bring cash for the bar and the food available for sale. Enjoy dancing while high and getting crossfaded if that is your thing.


What type of pipe?: Artificial fruit flavors from a popsicle pipe would go well with this ocean adventure. A coconut pipe would do the trick too. Better yet make two pipes, one coconut, and one pineapple popsicle, and then make a sort of cannabis-infused Pina Colada. You’ll probably need to bring a cooler but it will be a good place to hide your stash!


420 on 4/20 at 4:20

Abington, Massachusetts 02351

South Shore Pottery Shop 1209 Bedford St.

Saturday, April 20, 2019

Make resin bud necklaces, pot leaf sculptures, and psychedelic windchimes at this pottery 420 event. This event begins exactly at 4:20pm EST and costs $8.00.  


What type of pipe?: Since this event is so precise for stoners, 420 is the real New Year, to celebrate moments like these, celebrate with a champagne pipe.

420 Cann Expo

Mt. Pleasant, Michigan 48858

Soaring Eagle Casino and Resort 6800 Soaring Eagle Blvd.

Saturday, April 20, 2019

Leading marijuana industry professionals and serious marijuana enthusiasts will find stimulating presentations and booths that provide recent conversations on business, science, and laws relevant to the cannabis industry. Admission is free and the event starts at 10am EST and ends at 8pm EST.

What type of pipe?: At this event, you might need to be discreet. Use your stylus pipe after entering the contact information of the vendor who told you that they have a “weed bus” (Is it a bus full of weed or a bus made out of weed?) and light up.


No matter what state you are in on 420, mentally, psychologically, or physically, you can always come up with a creative idea that can lead to fun or wonder. Brett Stern’s 99 Ways to Make a Pipe is a good way to get in the creative spirit but sometimes the best thing is to just blow puffs of smoke and eat lots of snack foods. Make this holiday your own!
