Overview
Nevada has transformed into one of America's most cannabis-friendly destinations. Recreational cannabis became legal on January 1, 2017, following voter approval of Question 2 in November 2016. Medical marijuana has been legal since 2000.
As of January 2026, Nevada boasts a mature cannabis market with dozens of dispensaries throughout the Las Vegas Valley and Reno area. Many Las Vegas dispensaries operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week-a rarity in the cannabis world. The state has also pioneered licensed cannabis consumption lounges, providing tourists with legal places to consume their purchases.
Nevada's purchase limits were increased in 2023 by Senate Bill 277. Adults 21+ can now purchase up to 2.5 ounces of flower per transaction and possess the same amount. Concentrates are limited to a quarter ounce (7 grams).
The state operates a dual licensing system: most dispensaries serve both recreational ("adult-use") and medical customers. Medical patients enjoy benefits including higher possession limits (2.5 oz per 14 days) and tax savings (exempt from the 10% retail excise tax).
Public consumption remains illegal-you cannot smoke on the Las Vegas Strip, Fremont Street, casinos, or most hotels. Licensed consumption lounges are the only legal public option. Otherwise, consumption is limited to private residences.
Home cultivation is heavily restricted. Recreational users can only grow if they live more than 25 miles from a licensed dispensary-essentially impossible in Las Vegas or Reno. Medical patients have an exception but still face the 25-mile rule in most areas.

Buying Across State Lines
Nevada borders California (recreational), Arizona (recreational), Utah (medical only), and Oregon (recreational).
Despite surrounding legal states, transporting cannabis across state lines is a FEDERAL CRIME. This includes:
- Driving from California to Las Vegas with cannabis
- Leaving Nevada with cannabis for California, Arizona, or Utah
- Flying with cannabis (federal jurisdiction at all airports)
State line checkpoints are rare but possible on I-15 and other major highways.
Each state's cannabis must be purchased in that state. Do not transport across state lines regardless of legal status in both states.

Safety Note
Purchase only from licensed Nevada dispensaries. All products are tested and tracked through the state's seed-to-sale system.
Never drive impaired. Nevada's DUI threshold is 2 nanograms of THC per milliliter of blood-much lower than you might expect. Cannabis impairment is difficult to gauge, and penalties are severe.
Keep cannabis in sealed container in trunk or cargo area when transporting in a vehicle.
Start low with edibles (5-10mg THC) and wait at least 90 minutes before consuming more. The dry desert climate and Vegas atmosphere can intensify effects.
Stay hydrated. Nevada's desert environment combined with cannabis can lead to dehydration.
Never attempt to take cannabis on flights or across state lines. TSA screens for prohibited items, and cannabis is federally illegal.
Store cannabis away from children and pets. Nevada requires child-resistant packaging.
Federal restrictions: Cannabis users may face issues with federal employment, security clearances, firearm purchases, and immigration regardless of state legality.
