Expogrow Press Release

First of all, we would like to apologize for the delay in contacting you. It is true that we have needed an important time to think about this great project which is Expogrow.

Expogrow has been a personal experience for us, that has tried to go beyond a mere form of business. As professionals in this sector, our Fair has wanted to develop as a deep and analytical experience. We thought that we did it taking care of every detail. For this reason and for everyone, we added other complementary elements, but no less important and that made Expogrow a totally unique and different event: We were the first where the fun in the form of concerts merged with the fair, we were lucky to see groups like: MAREA, MORODO, LEE SCRATCH PERRY, CYPRESS HILL, ALAMEDADOSOULNA, LANGUI, MUCHACHITO BOMBO INFERNO, ASIAN DUB FOUNDATION, EMIR KUSTURICA AND THE NO SMOKING ORCHESTRA, ISEO & DODOSOUND, FRENCH TOUCH SQUAD and many more, that although we did not mention were there, giving us unforgettable moments, to involve the public and make this event more attractive if possible. The talks and colloquiums with leading figures of the international scene with relevant personalities from the world of science, culture, medicine, law, cannabis activism, etc. …. to help us clarify many of the doubts that exist in this world of ours and try to achieve common goals in this complex and great fight where we are all immersed. We managed to do fun activities and others that perhaps were not so much fun.

But we cannot forget that this project, so intimate for us, would not have been possible without you.

We have had ups and downs, years with success and others not so much, as in these last two editions, where the public was not enough to meet our expectations. An audience that is another important and necessary pillar in events of this type. But we must be consistent with the current situation, since the last edition, a true reflection of the moment our sector was going through, both at European level and more specifically in France, we experienced a more than remarkable drop in attendance. We are aware that, although we have put all our will and efforts, we may have made some mistakes and for this we must apologize. However, we have felt your empathy, support and closeness, which has made us feel that we have developed a close and respectful relationship and therefore in this reality we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts and from the soul for your support in these 10 editions of laughter and great moments.

Hoping for your understanding, we have taken a hard decision, complicated and at the same time necessary: To put a point and apart, a pause, a time of reflection in this 2023. Now it comes a time to rethink our future with a new team full of enthusiasm to innovate while maintaining the roots of quality of this project.

Because Expogrow will continue… it is only a pause, a parenthesis, but by no means an end.

You are our basic pillar, the great family of Expogrow, one of the «classiest» fairs on the international scene. Without you nothing would have been possible and therefore, we can only thank you infinitely and say: See you soon! …
