Dispensaries in Nevada

Nevada Dispensaries by City

Every Nevada city and town with at least one licensed dispensary is listed here, largest first. Las Vegas has 58 stores, more than every other city in the state combined. The names follow each store's postal address, and in Southern Nevada that matters: a "Las Vegas" address does not mean the store is inside the City of Las Vegas. Only 21 of the 58 stores with Las Vegas addresses are within city limits. Another 35 are in unincorporated Clark County communities, including Paradise and Winchester, where most of the Las Vegas Strip sits, and Spring Valley and Enterprise to the southwest.

Nevada Dispensaries by Region

Nevada's stores are concentrated in its two big metro areas: Clark County in the south and Washoe County, home to Reno and Sparks, in the north. Together they hold 90 of the 105 stores in our directory. Seven of Nevada's 17 counties (counting Carson City, which is its own consolidated city and county) have no store in our directory. Regional counts below are based on the county each store's map location falls in, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

Las Vegas, Henderson and Clark County (74 stores)

Clark County has 74 stores, about 7 in 10 of the state's total. Las Vegas addresses account for 58 of them, but the City of Las Vegas itself is only part of the valley. Here is where those 58 "Las Vegas" stores actually are, based on Census Bureau boundaries:

The 21 stores inside city limits cluster downtown, around South Las Vegas Boulevard north of Sahara Avenue, along Charleston Boulevard and Sahara Avenue, and in the northwest near Durango Drive and Sky Pointe. The 35 stores in unincorporated communities are governed by Clark County, not by any city. Paradise, which takes in most of the Strip, the airport area and the university district, has 12. Stores near the Strip sit on nearby streets such as Desert Inn Road, Twain Avenue, Western Avenue and Sammy Davis Jr. Drive, not inside the resorts. Spring Valley, west of Interstate 15, has 11, many along Flamingo Road, Tropicana Avenue, Rainbow Boulevard and Fort Apache Road. Enterprise, in the fast-growing south valley along Blue Diamond Road and Cactus Avenue, has 6.

Henderson has 8 stores with Henderson addresses, and North Las Vegas has 7. One store with a Las Vegas address is inside Henderson, and another is inside North Las Vegas. Mesquite, on Interstate 15 near the Arizona line, has 1. Clark County is also home to large areas of federal land, including Red Rock Canyon, Lake Mead National Recreation Area and Nellis Air Force Base, where cannabis remains illegal under federal law.

Pahrump and Nye County (3 stores)

Pahrump, west of Las Vegas over the Spring Mountains, has 2 stores with Pahrump addresses. Beatty, on U.S. 95 near the Nevada entrance to Death Valley National Park, has 1. Most of the park lies in California, and all of it is federal land, where the federal ban applies. California has its own legal market, but carrying cannabis across the state line is illegal, even though both states allow adult use. Compare the rules in our California marijuana law guide.

Reno, Sparks and Washoe County (16 stores)

Reno has 9 stores, the most in Northern Nevada, from South Virginia Street and Plumb Lane to Northtowne Lane and Old Virginia Road in south Reno. One of them, on Lemmon Drive, is in unincorporated Golden Valley rather than the City of Reno. Sparks has 5, mostly on Glendale Avenue and nearby streets, plus one on Pyramid Way in Spanish Springs. Sun Valley, north of Reno, has 1, and Incline Village, on the north shore of Lake Tahoe, has 1. Washoe County has 16 stores in all. The Lake Tahoe Basin includes national forest land, where federal law applies, and the lake is shared with California.

Carson City and Western Nevada (8 stores)

Carson City, the state capital, has 4 stores with Carson City addresses. One of them, on U.S. 50 east of town, is in neighboring Lyon County. Fernley, on Interstate 80 east of Reno, has 2. Gardnerville, in the Carson Valley in Douglas County, has 1, and Fallon, in Churchill County, has 1, the only store in our directory listed as a medical dispensary. Nearby Naval Air Station Fallon is federal property.

Northern and Eastern Nevada (4 stores)

Across the long stretch of Interstate 80 between Fernley and the Utah line, Winnemucca has 2 stores and Battle Mountain has 1. In eastern Nevada, Ely, on U.S. 50 and U.S. 93, has 1. Great Basin National Park, east of Ely, is federal land. Utah sets its own cannabis rules, and taking Nevada cannabis across any state line is illegal under federal law.

How Nevada Licenses Dispensaries: The Cannabis Compliance Board

Nevada voters approved the Regulation and Taxation of Marijuana Act, Ballot Question 2, on November 8, 2016, and adult-use cannabis became legal on January 1, 2017, according to the Cannabis Compliance Board. The Department of Taxation ran the program at first. Since July 1, 2020, the CCB has administered both the adult-use and medical cannabis programs under chapters 678A through 678D of the Nevada Revised Statutes.

How Nevada's licenses work:

• Adult-use retail stores: 104 of the stores in our directory hold adult-use retail licenses. Under NRS 678D.490, added in 2023, every adult-use cannabis establishment is deemed a dual licensee, which means it may also carry out medical cannabis activity, such as selling to medical cardholders, under the rules for dual licensees.
• Medical dispensaries: One store in our directory, in Fallon, is listed as a medical dispensary. Medical-only product may be sold only to patients with an active government-issued medical cannabis card, the CCB says.
• Consumption lounges: The CCB also licenses cannabis consumption lounges, Nevada's licensed places to use cannabis away from private property. More on those below.

Under NRS 678D.430, a store cannot sell through a third party or broker that lacks an adult-use license, and under NRS 678D.500 it may not ask shoppers for personal information beyond a government-issued ID. The CCB's FAQ answers many common consumer questions.

Buying Cannabis in Nevada: Age, ID, Limits and Delivery

• Age and ID: You must be 21 or older and show a valid government-issued photo ID with your date of birth, according to the CCB. A passport issued or recognized by the U.S. government works for residents and visitors alike. A U.S. state driver's license or ID card that expired less than two years ago may be accepted along with a second form of ID.
• Purchase limit: Stores may not sell more than 2.5 ounces of usable cannabis, one-quarter ounce of concentrated cannabis (which the CCB equates to 7,087 milligrams of THC), or a combination that exceeds the legal limit.
• Possession: Adults may possess up to 2.5 ounces of usable cannabis and one-quarter ounce of concentrated cannabis at one time, under NRS 678D.200, plus edibles and other products up to amounts the CCB sets by regulation. Carry more and you lose the protection from state prosecution.
• Gifting: An adult may give up to 2.5 ounces of cannabis or one-quarter ounce of concentrate to another adult 21 or older, as long as nothing is received in return and the gift is not advertised.
• Delivery: Licensed stores may deliver in CCB-inspected vehicles. A third-party delivery company may be used only if the sale is made through the store's own website or app and the driver is an authorized cannabis establishment agent (NRS 678D.430). Not every store delivers.
• Under 21: Anyone under 21 who enters or stays at an adult-use store faces a fine of up to $500, unless they are a medical cardholder at a dual-licensed store, under NRS 678D.310.
• Hours: Each store sets its own hours, so check the listing before you go.

What changed in 2025: bigger packages

Senate Bill 168, approved June 6, 2025, and effective on approval, rewrote Nevada's single-package limits in NRS 678D.420. A single package of adult-use cannabis may now hold up to 2.5 ounces of usable cannabis, up from 1 ounce, and a package of concentrate may hold up to 3,500 milligrams of THC. Capsule and tincture packages rose from 800 to 1,000 milligrams of THC. Edibles stay capped at 100 milligrams of THC per package, in servings of no more than 10 milligrams. SB 168 did not change the possession limits in NRS 678D.200.

Where You Can and Cannot Use Cannabis in Nevada

Under NRS 678D.310, smoking or otherwise consuming cannabis in a public place, in an adult-use store or in a vehicle is a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up to $600. That is a criminal charge, not a civil ticket.

• The Strip, Fremont Street and other public places: Sidewalks, streets, parks and anywhere else open to the public are off limits, however crowded with visitors they are.
• Casinos: Gaming licensees must comply with federal law, under which adult-use cannabis is illegal. The Gaming Policy Committee resolved in 2018 that licensees shall not participate in the marijuana industry and that casino events must not facilitate marijuana possession or consumption on licensed property, and the Gaming Control Board reaffirmed that policy in 2021. A casino floor is also open to the public.
• Hotels: Hotels and short-term rentals set their own rules, and casino resorts are also subject to the gaming policy above. Check your hotel's policy before you use cannabis in a room.
• Vehicles: No consuming in a vehicle, and driving under the influence of cannabis is never protected under NRS 678D.300.
• Federal land: Cannabis is illegal at Red Rock Canyon, Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Great Basin and Death Valley national parks, national forests, Nellis Air Force Base, NAS Fallon and other federal property. Our federal marijuana law guide explains why.
• Airports and state lines: The TSA follows federal law and refers cannabis found at screening to police. Taking cannabis across any state line is illegal, even into Arizona or California, which have their own legal markets. Compare the rules in every state's cannabis laws.

Cannabis Consumption Lounges in Nevada

NRS 678D.310 expressly allows people to smoke or otherwise consume cannabis in a licensed cannabis consumption lounge. Nevada law creates two kinds. A retail cannabis consumption lounge is attached to or immediately next to an adult-use retail store (NRS 678A.237). An independent cannabis consumption lounge is not attached to a store (NRS 678A.157) and must buy its products through contracts with one or more licensed retail stores, according to the CCB.

House rules, from the CCB's FAQ:

• Lounges sell single-use cannabis products and ready-to-consume cannabis products for use on site.
• No alcohol is sold or consumed at a cannabis consumption lounge.
• You cannot take home unfinished cannabis or cannabis products bought at the lounge.

When we checked in October 2026, the CCB's list of consumption lounges still read "coming soon," so call ahead or ask your store whether it has a lounge on site.

Growing Cannabis at Home in Nevada

Nevada allows adults to grow at home, but a distance rule rules it out for most residents. Under NRS 678D.310, nobody may cultivate cannabis within 25 miles of a licensed adult-use retail store, and our directory has stores in every metro area and in towns from Mesquite to Ely and Winnemucca. Where growing is allowed, NRS 678D.200 limits each adult to 6 plants, mature or immature, with no more than 12 plants at one residence. Plants must be in an enclosed area equipped with locks or other security devices, not exposed to public view or visible from a public place, on property you lawfully possess or have permission to use. Growing within 25 miles of a store, where plants can be seen from a public place, or on property without the owner's consent is a misdemeanor with a fine of up to $600 for a first violation and up to $1,000 for a second, a gross misdemeanor for a third and a category E felony for a fourth or later violation.

Medical Marijuana Dispensaries in Nevada

Adult-use legalization did not change Nevada's medical cannabis program, the CCB says. Patient cards are issued through the Medical Marijuana Patient Cardholder Registry, run by the Division of Public and Behavioral Health, not by the CCB. Under NRS chapter 678C:

• Who qualifies: A Nevada resident whose attending provider of health care signs that the person has been diagnosed with a chronic or debilitating medical condition and that the provider has explained the possible risks and benefits. Patients under 18 need a custodial parent or guardian who consents and serves as their caregiver.
• How long a card lasts: 1 year or 2 years, as the provider specifies on the application, and it can be renewed.
• Limits: A cardholder and caregiver together may not possess more than 2.5 ounces of usable cannabis and 12 plants at one time, plus products up to amounts the CCB sets.
• Tax: Sales to medical cardholders are exempt from the 10% retail excise tax, under NRS 372A.290 and the Department of Taxation.
• Home grow: Once a medical dispensary opens in a cardholder's county, the cardholder generally may not grow, with exceptions such as no dispensary within 25 miles of home.
• Visiting patients: Under NRS 678C.470, a nonresident authorized to use medical cannabis in their home state is treated as a cardholder if they stay within Nevada's limits, and a dispensary may serve them on valid proof. The CCB says reciprocity covers some states, so ask the dispensary first.

Our directory marks 0 store as a medical dispensary, with a Medical badge. Because every adult-use store is deemed a dual licensee, many adult-use stores also serve cardholders, so ask the store.

Nevada Cannabis Taxes and Prices

Nevada taxes cannabis twice under NRS 372A.290, and the Nevada Department of Taxation collects both:

• 15% wholesale excise tax on the first wholesale sale of cannabis by a cultivation facility. The cultivation facility owes this tax.
• 10% retail excise tax on each adult-use sale by a retail store or consumption lounge. It is calculated on the discounted sales price, not including sales tax, according to the Department of Taxation.
• Sales tax on top. The statute says the 10% excise is separate from and in addition to general state and local sales and use taxes, so the total at the register depends on where the store is.
• Medical cardholders do not pay the 10% retail excise tax.

Wholesale tax revenue first covers the costs of the CCB and local governments, with the rest going to the State Education Fund. A 2025 law also requires every cannabis seller to get a separate cannabis tax permit from the Department of Taxation starting January 1, 2027 (NRS 372A.2864). Prices vary from store to store, so compare out-the-door prices, daily deals and first-visit discounts rather than shelf tags.

How we build this directory: Store names, street addresses and license numbers come from the Cannabis Compliance Board's records of licensed retail stores. The state's list does not give a city and ZIP code for every store, so we fill them in with the U.S. Census Bureau geocoder, which uses postal names; that is why many stores in unincorporated Clark County appear under Las Vegas. We check each store against map data, leave out stores reported as permanently closed, and refresh the list as the CCB licenses new stores. For the rules in every state, see our state-by-state cannabis law guides.
