420 Day History420 Day involves the celebration and advocacy for the use of cannabis, a substance that holds both cultural significance and contemporary controversy. The day brings social issues to the forefront, prompting discussions about drug policy, criminal justice reform, and civil liberties. Its activities often include education, advocacy, social networking, and expression of support for cannabis through various art forms and events. 420 Day, despite its global reach, has a somewhat unclear history. Northern California's San Rafael High School is believed to be its origin point, where a group of students would allegedly meet at 4:20 p.m to consume cannabis. In Australia, 420 Day has gained significant relevance in recent years, particularly influencing the national discourse on marijuana legislation. The fact that Australia currently allows the medical use of cannabis, yet keeps its recreational use illegal, creates a notable context in which 420 Day is celebrated. On 420 Day in Australia, citizens often gather in major cities to publicly advocate for the decriminalisation and regularisation of marijuana. Peaceful demonstrations, shared experiences, and collective efforts are common, with the day serving as a platform for Australians to voice their opinions and engage in civic action. Events often take place at venues like city squares or parks, welcoming anyone interested in participating. 420 Day happens annually on April 20, yet due to geographical contrast, it happens on April 21 in Australia because of the time difference.
