Two years ago, The Refinery opened its doors in New Buffalo, and it’s been building a name for itself ever since. This October, the shop is done keeping it low-key. October 9th through 11th, three straight days, The Refinery is throwing the kind of anniversary weekend that turns a regular dispensary run into an actual event.
Picture the whole store flipped into celebration mode: doors open, energy up, and the shelves loaded for a weekend built entirely around saying thank you to the people who’ve shown up for two years straight. Storewide savings are part of the plan, giveaways are part of the plan, freebies are part of the plan, and every single one of them is worth clearing your Saturday for.
Saturday is where things really get loud. There’s a dunk tank on-site, and the Growing Pains team is taking the seat, so bring your best arm. A food truck is parked out front for anyone who needs to refuel between stops around the shop. Dozens of brands are showing up in person with their own swag, giveaways, and surprises, which means this isn’t just a Refinery party, it’s basically a block party for everyone who loves this scene. And for whoever goes biggest over the weekend, there’s a serious prize on the line worth showing up early for.
This is a three-day takeover, one location, and two years worth of momentum behind it. Mark the calendar now: October 9th through 11th at The Refinery in New Buffalo.
The full breakdown of deals, giveaways, and everything else on the menu that weekend is dropping in its own post soon. Consider this the warning shot. Keep an eye on The Refinery’s page so you don’t miss it.
