Strains & Games 5 Is Bringing the Internet Into Real Life
Most people experience their hobbies through a screen.
Gaming happens online. Collecting happens in Facebook groups and Discord servers. Cannabis culture lives in comment sections, podcasts, and social feeds. Everyone is connected, but rarely in the same room. That's part of what makes Strains & Games work.
On Saturday, June 20, the event returns to Chatsworth for its fifth installment, bringing together gamers, collectors, vendors, artists, and cannabis enthusiasts for an afternoon that feels less like a convention and more like a community hangout that got pleasantly out of hand.
The centerpiece of the evening is the Super Smash Bros. Tournament, where competitors will battle for a Home Arcade Cabinet Grand Prize and bragging rights that tend to last much longer than any trophy.
More than 30 vendors and exhibitors will be on hand with everything from Pokémon, Dragon Ball, One Piece, and sports cards to artwork, apparel, collectibles, and specialty products. Whether you're hunting for a rare find or just curious about what's out there, half the fun comes from stumbling across something you weren't planning to take home.
Food, music, giveaways, lounge experiences, and special activations round out the day, giving people plenty of reasons to stick around long after they've finished shopping or playing.
Every ticket also includes a complimentary LiquiDabs Infused Beverage.
Events like this have become increasingly rare. Not because there aren't communities built around gaming, collecting, or cannabis, but because most of those communities exist separately. Strains & Games creates a space where those worlds naturally overlap.
Strains & Games 5 takes place Saturday, June 20, 2026, from 4PM to 10PM in Chatsworth, California.
This is a 21+ event. Tickets are limited.
