High Spirits, Higher Vibes: The Solstice Market Moves but Stays Lit

Sometimes, the universe throws a little curveball — or in this case, a venue issue — and just when you think your plans are going up in smoke, the community comes together and says, “Not today, venue drama. Not today.”

That’s exactly what happened with the High Spirits Solstice Market, originally scheduled for Leeds, New York. If you saw the initial announcement, you may have noticed it was canceled… briefly. But don’t worry, the cannabis cosmos aligned, and within 24 hours, the market was back on — just at a new location. Same date. Same time. Same high-holiday energy. And honestly? It might even be better.

Welcome to The Clocktower in Amsterdam, New York — 37 Prospect Street, to be exact. Doors open at noon and keep it rolling until 8 PM. It’s the kind of place where community, creativity, and culture collide in a haze of high holiday spirits — the only thing missing is your favorite strain in your pocket… but don’t worry, that’s covered too.

Thanks to some quick-thinking folks in the community, the event wasn’t just saved — it was revived with flair. Rumor has it, a few heads got together, looked at the work already poured into this event, and collectively said: “We did too much to just let a venue kill the vibe.” And honestly, they were right. Because let’s face it: a canceled solstice market is like a brownie with no chocolate — it just shouldn’t happen.

The best part? Higher Beings powered by Hudson Valley Green will be fully stocked and ready to bring the fire. Bring cash, bring friends, and bring your appetite for community vibes. Whether you’re a Leeds local mourning the original plan or an Amsterdam resident looking for new holiday excitement, this market is the place to be.

Tickets are $5 in advance at http://www.damnsam.com or $10 at the door — a small price to pay for a day full of creativity, cannabis, and community spirit. And yes, if you’ve been collecting strain reviews from OG Strain like Pokémon cards, this is your chance to see some of those buds in real life — fully stocked, fully fire, and ready to make your winter solstice even brighter.

Stay lifted, stay festive, and see you at The Clocktower this December 21.
