The Hanfparade () is a hemp legalization demonstration in Berlin. It has taken place each year in August since 1997. The traditional course of the parade floats make a prelude through the German capital. In a demonstration, thousands give hemp and cannabis their attention. At the end of the demonstration a closing speech takes place. The parade offers a variety of hemp-related entertainment. The main stage offers mixes of speeches and live-music. National and international musicians entertain the visitors, which often includes high-ranking personalities from politics, culture, medicine and the legalization movement. In the speakers corner an open microphone waits for contributions. The demonstrations so far have always been peaceful, which may be because the police rarely pursue offenses against cannabis possession laws. 2022 The Hanfparade took place on 13 August 2022.
