About JIHE
JIHE (Japan International Hemp Expo) is Japan's largest international exposition encompassing every facet of the hemp industry — from CBD products and hemp agriculture to construction materials, food, fashion, and biotechnology.
Born from integrating Japan’s long-running “CBD Journey” and “CannaCon” into a single international platform. In 2026 the stage is a whole-building venue in Omotesando, Tokyo — “House of OMOTESANDO.” From the basement exhibition hall to the 1F business lounge, 2F conference, and rooftop networking space, the entire building is composed floor by floor into an immersive expo.
