What is 7/10? The History of Oil Day

This Thursday is 7/10!
What is 7/10? Take the word "OIL" and flip it upside down.

That's the origin of this epic stoner holiday that celebrates all things cannabis concentrates—also known as "oil." Unlike the more famous 4/20, which focuses on cannabis culture as a whole, 7/10 is all about dabs, hash, live resin, rosin, and the art of extraction.

To celebrate, Pepe Cannabis Store has put all concentrates on 10% OFF all week long—perfect for stocking up on your favourite products or trying something new.

The Origins of 7/10: Why July 10th is Oil Day

While 4/20 has a long and documented history, 7/10 is a newer cannabis holiday. The number 710 began showing up in cannabis forums and on social media in the early 2010s. Flip it upside down, and you’ll see it spells “OIL.” The connection was simple and visual, and concentrate enthusiasts quickly adopted it as their own celebration day.

By 2013, 7/10 had gone mainstream. Events like the 710 Cup began popping up across legal markets in the U.S., showcasing the growing world of cannabis extracts. Since then, the date has become synonymous with dabbing culture, especially in Canada as legalization opened the door for more advanced concentrate products to hit the shelves.

What Makes 7/10 Different From 4/20?

While both are rooted in cannabis culture, 7/10 and 4/20 represent different parts of the experience.

4/20 is a celebration of cannabis in its broadest form—flower, edibles, advocacy, and community. It’s inclusive, accessible, and a bit more laid back.

7/10, on the other hand, is about potency, precision, and the evolution of the plant. It’s a day for extract lovers—people who appreciate the craft of rosin pressing, the complexity of terpene profiles, or the pure hit of a live resin dab.

It’s also a day that shines a light on the technology behind the scenes: the extractors, the rigs, the cold-cure processes, and solventless methods that push the industry forward.

Why Cannabis Concentrates Deserve Their Own Day

Cannabis concentrates represent one of the most exciting parts of modern cannabis. Whether you’re talking about traditional hash or high-end rosin, these products pack incredible potency, flavour, and variety.

7/10 gives these products the spotlight. It’s a day to recognize:

  • The science and skill behind solventless extraction

  • The artistry of full-spectrum products like live rosin

  • The heritage of traditional hash-making techniques

  • The innovation of modern dab tech and vaporizer design

For seasoned users, it’s a day to celebrate their go-to format. For new users, it’s a great opportunity to explore something beyond flower.
