WAVERLY, Ohio (WKRC) – Organizers of an Ohio marijuana festival’s second year are facing criticism by some vendors after they say the event was mismanaged.
According to WCMH, hundreds of cannabis enthusiasts traveled to the riverbank in Waverly, Ohio to attend the second annual Stargazer Cannabis Festival in July, with some walking away feeling frustrated by alleged mismanagement and hardship.
“If they weren’t playing music, it would have looked like an episode of ‘The Walking Dead,’” Hannah Anderson, an artist and vendor who attended the event, said when speaking to the station.
Several vendors spoke to reporters with WCHM days after the wrap up of Stargazer Festival, telling the outlet that they had multiple concerns during the event, including safety, infrastructural and security personnel concerns.
The first Stargazer Festival was held in Pomeroy, Ohio, near Hocking Hills, in 2024 after the State of Ohio legalized recreational cannabis use for adults.
- Weather-related conditions
WCMH reported that the festival was moved to the banks of the Scioto River for its second year so that the event would had additional space due to a high turnout in the previous year.
Stargazer Festival organizer Chad Thompson told reporters with WCMH that he confirmed the festival would be able to take place in Waverly on July 19, which was just days before vendors arrived at the site.
Due to heavy rainfall before the event, however, many areas were left partially flooded. Thompson told WCMH that the flooding forced his team to adapt the venue, which ultimately left the festival with significantly less space to work with. He added that organizers had planned for vendors to set up near the site’s electrical tower for convenient access to power, but said the flooding forced them to relocate.
- Venue infrastructure issues
Jennifer Carlson, a food truck owner, told WCMH’s reporters that some vendors paid an additional $50 to have access to electricity at the site, and said the lack of power resulted in financial losses for her business. Carlson alleged that there was not enough power for the 100 vendors operating at the festival, and said multiple vendors purchased their own generators.
Vendors were able to begin setting up at the site beginning on July 23, but Thompson told WCMH that the scope of the issue was not clear until the festival began on July 25.
