Step 3: Fill in Your Event Details

The event submission form walks you through everything needed to create a complete listing:

Title — keep it clear and descriptive
Description — explain what the event is, who it's for, and what attendees can expect
Category — choose the best fit (Dispensary Events, Educational Workshops, Industry Networking, etc.)
Date and time — start and end, including timezone
Venue — select an existing venue from the list or enter a new one with a full address

Step 4: Add Optional Details

Event image — strongly recommended; events with images get significantly more clicks
Capacity — if your event has limited spots, set the number here
Ticket or registration URL — link out to Eventbrite, your website, or wherever tickets are sold
Pricing — note whether the event is free or paid

Step 5: Submit for Review

Click Submit Event when you're ready. Your event will be reviewed by the njlegalize.me team and published to the calendar, typically within 24–48 hours. You'll receive an email confirmation once it goes live.

Tips for Getting Approved Quickly

Use a real venue address — events without a location may be delayed
Upload an event image — it makes your listing look professional and complete
Events must be cannabis-related and take place in New Jersey
Keep the description focused on what attendees actually get out of showing up
