The cannabis lounge industry in Las Vegas is still in its early stages, but it has already generated significant attention among locals and visitors who want a safe and legal space to enjoy their purchases. As regulations evolve, knowing what to expect before stepping into a lounge is essential.
Lounges Currently Open
As of 2025, there are only a few consumption lounges available in Las Vegas. The most notable is Dazed! Consumption Lounge, located inside the Planet 13 Entertainment Complex on Desert Inn Road. This state-licensed venue is the only public lounge operating under Nevada Cannabis Compliance Board oversight. It provides guests with a controlled, high-end environment for legal consumption.
Another lounge, Smoke and Mirrors, was attached to Thrive Cannabis Marketplace near Resorts World. It launched in early 2024 with a sophisticated cocktail-bar vibe, but the lounge closed to the public in early 2025. Today, it operates strictly as a private event space.
In addition to these venues, SkyHigh Lounge continues to operate inside the NuWu Cannabis Marketplace near downtown. Because NuWu is located on sovereign tribal land, SkyHigh functions outside of state regulations. It has long been popular with locals for offering a unique consumption experience in a lounge setting.

What Customers Should Know Before Visiting
Visitors should come prepared with valid identification, as all lounges require patrons to be 21 or older. Nevada law also limits daily purchases to 2.5 ounces, and lounges enforce these restrictions carefully. Only cannabis bought inside the lounge may be consumed there. At Dazed!, lockers are provided so customers can safely store other products purchased elsewhere while enjoying the lounge experience.
Customers should also note that cannabis purchased within a lounge cannot be taken off the premises. All items must be consumed inside, and anything left over is discarded by staff. Tax rates remain consistent with dispensary purchases, with an added 10 percent excise tax.
The experience itself varies by lounge. Dazed! focuses on creating a social, immersive environment, offering flower, pre-rolls, vapes, and cannabis-infused mocktails with precise dosages. SkyHigh, by contrast, embraces a more relaxed atmosphere, popular with locals who want an alternative to private consumption.
Finally, safety is emphasized at all venues. Lounges are required to maintain strong ventilation systems, provide clear signage, and enforce over-consumption policies. They also encourage ride-share services and alternative transportation to prevent impaired driving.
Though limited in number, Las Vegas cannabis lounges represent a significant step forward for Nevada’s industry. With Dazed! leading the way under state regulation and SkyHigh operating under tribal law, the city offers a glimpse into the future of cannabis hospitality. Visitors who plan ahead and understand the rules can expect a safe, social, and fully legal experience.
