The Seshie Awards
A National Cannabis Awards Show
The Seshie Awards are a new national awards show created to recognize excellence across cannabis culture, creativity, and community impact.
Produced and hosted by STNR.TV, the Seshies are designed to honor the individuals, brands, creators, and organizations shaping the modern cannabis landscape—on screen, behind the scenes, and within their communities.
The Seshie Awards follow established award-show traditions while embracing a modern, creator-forward approach grounded in authenticity, cultural relevance, and real contribution.
Produced & Published In-House
The Seshie Awards are produced entirely in-house.
STNR.TV serves as the host and public platform, STNR Media operates as the media management partner, and our production arm, Two Geko Productions, coordinates all aspects of live event production for the Seshie Awards.
As the official producing team, we oversee:
• Event production and broadcast
• Awards programming and editorial coverage
• Nomination intake and review operations
• Media distribution and audience engagement
This structure allows the Seshie Awards to remain a focused, singular live event while benefiting from the reach, infrastructure, and year-round storytelling capabilities of a dedicated, multi-vertical media pipeline.
A Contemporary Awards Model
The Seshie Awards are being built using familiar and trusted award-show practices, including:
• Defined eligibility periods
• Formal nomination windows
• Curated award categories
• Review and selection processes
• A live, in-person ceremony
At the same time, the Seshies recognize that cannabis culture does not exist in a vacuum—and that excellence takes many forms across media, art, education, business, and community leadership.
Full category lists and nomination criteria will be released when nominations officially open.
Recognition Beyond a Single Stage
Cannabis culture thrives locally.
Across the country, independent award shows, festivals, and community-based recognitions already honor excellence within their regions. The Seshie Awards are designed to acknowledge and elevate that work on a national stage—without replacing or diminishing existing local efforts.
This model allows locally recognized achievements to be considered within a broader national context, connecting regional excellence to a wider audience.

Built With Intention
The Seshie Awards are being developed with a long-term vision.
Rather than rushing toward sponsorships or commercial integrations, the focus is on building a credible, respected awards show with room to grow responsibly year over year.
Brand partnerships, advertising opportunities, and broader commercial participation will be introduced at later stages once the foundation is firmly established.
Investment & Early Participation
Producing a national awards show requires infrastructure, planning, and creative investment.
STNR.TV is exploring select early participation and investment opportunities for individuals and organizations interested in supporting the foundation of the Seshie Awards prior to public sponsorship offerings.
These opportunities are limited and focused on long-term alignment rather than short-term exposure.
What Comes Next
Details will be released in stages as the Seshie Awards continue to take shape.
For now, the invitation is clear:
Create meaningful work.
Support your local scenes.
Pay attention.
The Seshie Awards are coming.
