Legal Consumption in Missouri

Since Amendment 3 passed in November 2022, it’s legal for adults 21+ to purchase and possess up to 3 ounces of cannabis in Missouri. However, consuming it in public—such as sidewalks, parks, or in vehicles—is still prohibited and can result in fines set by local ordinances.

Private Places Are the Legal Way

To enjoy your cannabis legally, it must be consumed in private locations, like your home or private property. Smoking in an apartment may also be allowed unless your landlord or HOA bans cannabis on-site . Some Missouri residents use 420‑friendly vacation rentals or private cannabis clubs, though these operate in a legal grey area and may carry their own risks.

No Lounges Yet, But Change Is Coming

Currently, Missouri doesn’t offer licensed vape or cannabis lounges—the state has not passed on‑premises consumption laws, and the ATC continues to prohibit public use on licensed premises. Still, several cities are actively exploring cannabis café regulations, indicating that legal on-site venues may arrive in the future.

Safe and Legal Tips for Consumers

For now, your safest bet is to enjoy cannabis at home or in personal spaces where public use isn’t an issue. If you live in an apartment, check your lease for cannabis policies. Keep your cannabis secure, stay under the 3‑ounce legality limit, and never consume before driving or in public.
