HomeGrown Cup 2021

We’re back in 2021 with a HomeGrown Cup like you’re used to from us. We are doing a few things differently however that makes things easier for all of us. Dutch and other nearby competitors will be able to hand in their entries on Thursday, December 16, in Tilburg. Living in the Netherlands? Please leave an address in the registration form where we can send the mylar bags and glass containers to put your entries in. If you prefer to make an appointment, to pick them up you can also leave your phone number. WE DO NOT SHIP MYLAR BAGS AND GLASS JARS TO OUTSIDE OF THE NETHERLANDS. Other foreign competitors will be able to hand in their entries on the cup day itself, December 18. Please be one hour earlier at the venue: 11.00.

History

2015 saw the first edition of the HomeGrown Cup, leaning on an old tradition of celebrating the annual agriculture harvest at the end of the season. The 2016 edition was held on December 17, 2016, in Eindhoven (the Netherlands). The 2017 edition was held on December 2nd, in Tilburg (the Netherlands). The 2018 edition was held on December 15 in Eindhoven (the Netherlands). In 2019 we did two cups in one year for the first time, on June 15th and December 21st. In 2020, due to the corona crisis we did the HomeGrown Cup 2020: Home Edition. In 2021 we’re back with a HomeGrown Cup for indoor and outdoor like you’re used to from us in previous years.

Can I buy tickets to this event?

There are no public tickets available (or judge packs for sale). However, competitors must pay 75 euros per entry (max 4, in different categories) to enter for the 2021 edition. For each entry you get a judge pack. You can hand in your entries in Tilburg on December 16 and come on December 18 to the communicated venue for a day of judging, networking and free drinks and food. For every entry you also get a goodiebag including a t-shirt.

‘The 2017 HomeGrown Cup was a perfect example of how cannabis goes beyond healing individuals and can heal communities, too.’

Bill Griffin, Marijuana Times (2017)

‘At a secret location in the Dutch city of Eindhoven last month, around 70 cannabis growers, concentrate producers, and cannaseurs gathered to take part in the second annual Homegrown Cup. Their charge: Judge entries in four different categories: outdoor, indoor, traditional hash, and concentrates. (…)’
