Pueblo has 22 dispensaries licensed by the Colorado Marijuana Enforcement Division (MED). Anyone 21 or older with a valid photo ID can buy, including drivers passing through on I-25 with an out-of-state license, and 4 stores also serve registered medical patients. Pueblo stores open early and close late: most open at 8 a.m., and one stays open until 11:45 p.m.
Pueblo is the biggest cannabis market south of Colorado Springs and a highway town at heart. Its busiest stores sit right off I-25 on the north side of the city, where they catch traffic heading between Colorado Springs and New Mexico, and almost every store here is focused on adult-use sales rather than medical. Ratings are high across the board: every store with Google data has at least 4.3 stars.

Pueblo and Colorado Cannabis Laws: Purchase Limits, Public Use and Driving
A retail store may sell up to 1 ounce of flower or its equivalent per transaction, and no more than 8 grams of concentrate a day. Adults may possess up to 2 ounces. Our Colorado marijuana laws guide covers the rest.
- Public use: Consuming cannabis in public is a petty offense with a fine of up to $100. That includes the Riverwalk, Lake Pueblo State Park, city parks and parking lots.
- Driving: Drivers and passengers may not open packaging or use cannabis in a vehicle. A blood level of 5 nanograms of THC per milliliter lets a court infer impairment.
- State lines: Taking cannabis out of Colorado is illegal, including south to New Mexico, which has its own legal market, or east toward Kansas.
Cannabis Taxes in Pueblo
Every recreational purchase carries Colorado's 15% retail marijuana sales tax, plus local sales and marijuana taxes that depend on the store's address. Your receipt lists each one. A 15% state excise tax is paid at wholesale and built into shelf prices. The City of Pueblo also charges an excise tax on marijuana grown inside city limits, but growers pay it, not shoppers. Medical purchases skip the 15% retail tax and pay the 2.9% state sales tax instead. For a statewide comparison, see our cannabis prices by state report.
Medical Marijuana in Pueblo
Only 4 of Pueblo's 22 stores hold a medical license, a small share compared with Colorado Springs to the north. Patients 18 and older with a state registry card can buy up to 2 ounces of flower a day at those stores and pay lower taxes. Patients under 21 can shop only at medical stores.
