**High Tide Opens First Canna Cabana Store In Kamloops, British Columbia**

CALGARY, AB, Jan. 9, 2023 /CNW/ - High Tide Inc. ("**High Tide**" or the "**Company**") (Nasdaq: HITI) (TSXV: HITI) (FSE: 2LYA), a leading retail-focused cannabis company with bricks-and-mortar as well as global e-commerce assets, announced today that its Canna Cabana retail cannabis store located at 1055 Hillside Dr, Kamloops, British Columbia has begun selling recreational cannabis products and consumption accessories for adult use. This brings High Tide's total number of branded Canna Cabana locations across Canada to 151, including 7 in British Columbia. This new store represents the first Canna Cabana in the city of Kamloops and is a 15-minute walk from Thompson Rivers University, with an on-campus student population of over 13,000 and a scenic 250-acre campus. The store is also at the base of several hiking trails, and it is located in a shopping complex anchored by a major discount grocer and retailer. Finally, this bricks-and-mortar location is a short drive from Aberdeen Mall, a hub of retail activity in Kamloops.

"I am pleased to announce the opening of our first Canna Cabana in Kamloops, the 10th largest city in British Columbia. This beautiful city, nestled in the south-central part of the province, is a stop for many athletes each year as Kamloops plays host to hockey, baseball, curling and other tournaments. I hope we can welcome some of these visitors into our store, expanding our reach and brand recognition with Canadians," said Raj Grover, President and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide. "Anchored by a major discount retail chain, this location is poised to benefit from high levels of traffic coming into this power centre. This location is our seventh Canna Cabana in the province of British Columbia and moves us closer to our goal of reaching eight stores, the current maximum permitted by any entity in the province," added Mr. Grover.

Further to the Company's news release dated December 29, 2022, the Company paid an arm's length finders' fee of 136,266 common shares of the Company, in relation to the Company's successful acquisition of Jimmy's, which was based on 5% of the aggregate consideration and were issued on the basis of a deemed price of C$2.0365 per share.
