It Has Not Been Lost on Snoop Dogg That 4/20 Weed Holiday Falls on Easter Sunday

2025 interestingly lines up such that the casual marijuana celebration on April 20th (420) falls on Easter Sunday and the final day of Passover. While some celebrate by hunting for colored eggs, indulging in sugary Peeps, attending religious services, savoring matzoh dishes, and honoring the deceased, others might engage in a more ceremonial use of cannabis products.

In twenty-four states within the United States, recreational marijuana has been legalized, with experts predicting that the overall cannabis market will generate approximately $45 billion in sales by 2025. There are numerous “420” events taking place in Los Angeles, and it is said (though unconfirmed) that this term originated from a group of Californian teenagers in the ’70s who would gather to smoke marijuana at 4:20 pm, eventually using this time as a secret code.

Legendary figure and cannabis advocate Snoop Dogg, often referred to as Marijuana’s high priest, has been open about his affection for marijuana since his appearance on Dr. Dre’s 1992 solo album titled “The Chronic” (a nod to cannabis). Over the years, he’s delved into various business endeavors within the cannabis industry, even launching his own weed brand, Leafs by Snoop. Known for his quick-witted humor spanning over three decades (evident in his notable commentary during the 2024 Olympics, which expanded his global impact), the artist playfully portrayed himself as the Easter Bunny on a memorable post on X (formerly Twitter) around the time of a unique convergence of holidays.
