Vegas Marijuana Lounge

The Las Vegas City Council, in a 5-1 vote, has approved marijuana consumption lounges. These lounges are similar to a bar, but with marijuana sales and consumption instead of alcohol. In Europe, these cannabis lounges are commonly known as “coffee shops.”

Nearly 40 million tourists visit Las Vegas annually and many of them can’t conveniently consume marijuana while visiting. But when cannabis lounges open tourists will have a place to safely and legally use cannabis.

States such as Arizona and New Mexico would also benefit from legalizing adult-use marijuana lounges for locals and tourists to provide them with safe and legal establishments to use marijuana.

Nevada legalized recreational marijuana use in 2016.

Arizona legalized marijuana for recreational use in November 2020. The law allows adults aged 21+ to purchase, possess and use cannabis. State-licensed cannabis dispensaries began selling recreational marijuana in early 2021. There are over 150 dispensaries in Arizona — a majority of them are in populous areas such as Phoenix, Tucson and Flagstaff. Recreational cannabis delivery services began operating in 2024.
