Snoop Lion’s big party reportedly just went up in smoke.

The rapper and famous marijuana enthusiast was set to host the “Snoop Lion 420 Festival” on Saturday from a mansion in the Hollywood Hills, with the event — including musical performances — live streamed worldwide.

But the party was reportedly shut down by police before the artist formerly known as Snoop Dogg even arrived, according to TMZ.
