What happened to Cigarfest from CI? I haven't been since 2015 but I know they were still going on. The last info I can find was there was definitely one last year. I can't find any info on a 2024 or 2025 event. Did they end it? Did they make it more hush hush? Inquiring smokers want to know!

They look interesting. I'd like to go to one.
Trapped in the People's Communist Republic of Massachusetts.
They don’t receive nearly the fanfare they used to. At one time they were the biggest and best thing going. These days not so much. Between the Drew Estate Barnsmokers and other yearly major festivals and events they’ve kind of lost their luster.
I went to the first Barnsmoker. It was fun but nowhere on the scale of Cigarfest. Maybe they are bigger than they used to be. The thing is, I haven't even seen a post about Cigarfest for 2024. Makes me wonder if it's over or they just skipped a year or it just wasn't publicized.
The Barnsmokers have become much larger than they were and the opposite has happened to Cigarfest from what I understand. The last one I went to was in 2014. Back then there really weren’t any other options so it was huge. Seemed like every vendor out there showed up for it and anyone willing to travel would too. Now there are a lot more options and both vendors and customers can pick their spots. I’m pretty sure I got another email this year for tickets, but I may be wrong.
