State by State UNITED STATES
The United States is a patchwork of cannabis laws — from fully legal adult-use states like Colorado and California to medical-only markets and outright prohibition. The best cannabis tourism destinations offer licensed dispensaries, consumption lounges, and curated experiences.
Legal Overview
Cannabis legality varies dramatically by state. As of 2025, 24 states plus D.C. have legalized recreational use. Federal law still classifies cannabis as Schedule I, but enforcement is minimal in legal states.
