By Salem Collo-Julin, Salem Collo Julin Verified| Chicago Reader Verified We couldn’t miss giving you a 4/20 edition! Many dispensaries, smoke lounges, and CBD shops are running sales this month with special deals on items like prerolls, topicals, and accessories. Here are some cannabis-related events to check out. Some are meant to make you get in the door and shop, and some are just ganja-inspired, but be warned: none of these are family-friendly, and most are 21+ only (assume adults only unless we note differently below). Smoke ’em if you got ’em.
By Salem Collo Julin Verified| Chicago Reader Verified The vernal equinox has happened for 2025, which means that spring has finally arrived. However, we could call it a “technical spring” so far because we’ve only had fleeting glimpses of the warmth and new growth yet to come. Right now is the time of year when Chicagoans crave color. While nature will take its own time to dazzle us, we can always choose to wear clothes for the season we want to be living in.

Company Info
Chicago Reader
The Chicago Reader is an alternative weekly newspaper that has been a significant part of Chicago's cultural and political landscape since its founding in 1971. It is known for its fearless journalism and strong community ties, initially serving the city's countercultural demographics, including artists, musicians, and activists. The Reader has transitioned from a print-focused model to a hybrid digital and print operation, continuing to provide critical political analysis and cultural criticism. The Reader offers weekly print editions and daily online content, featuring investigative reporting and event listings. It collaborates with freelancers and independent outlets to amplify marginalized voices, supported by initiatives like the Accountability Journalism project. The paper has also published special projects, including a commemorative book celebrating its history. Under new leadership, the Reader emphasizes equity in staffing and coverage, focusing on issues affecting communities of color and immigrants, while remaining community-supported through donation drives and campaigns.
