Events

RCCO events bring Ontario's independent cannabis retail community together to connect, learn and engage with the people and organizations shaping the industry.

Our annual Conference & Expo and AGM bring together cannabis retailers, regulators, industry leaders, suppliers and partners for meaningful conversations, education, networking and collaboration. Each event is thoughtfully curated to create a sense of connection and exclusivity, bringing together the people who are directly involved in building and shaping Ontario's cannabis retail industry.

From hearing directly from key regulatory and industry stakeholders to raising questions, sharing experiences and building relationships with peers, RCCO events are designed to provide retailers with meaningful access, valuable connections and a stronger voice within the industry.

What our attendees are saying

The RCCO Conference brings together retailers, licensed producers, and industry leaders for meaningful conversations, valuable connections, and an experience built around collaboration.

“The first industry event where I saw a direct ROI almost immediately.”

As an LP, I found this event to be extremely well organized, informative, and valuable. The content was relevant, the networking opportunities were excellent, and most importantly, it was the first industry event where I saw a direct ROI almost immediately afterward.

“It's rare that attendees are treated like humans.”

Thank you, Helene and Adam, for everything. I had so many conversations throughout the day about how RCCO is our favourite conference. It's rare that attendees are treated like humans. Amazing food. Great organization. Moments to sit and listen. Fresh air. Intentional connections. The experience truly can't be beat!

“The organization was impeccable, and every detail was thoughtfully planned.”

What stood out to me most was how different the atmosphere felt compared to many other industry events. It felt like people genuinely wanted to have meaningful, in-depth conversations. The organization was impeccable, and it was clear how much thought and care went into every detail. The Fireside Chats were incredibly insightful. I felt taken care of from the moment I arrived.

“People aren't there just to pick up samples — they want meaningful conversations.”

I believe this was the best year yet. The organization was fantastic, and the conversations were great. People want to have conversations and learn about the products, which is why we really loved doing this event. Looking forward to next year's event!
