As a tourist, you can smoke marijuana in Barcelona, but only in designated clubs. Anywhere, on the beach or in the parks, the consumption of cannabis is prohibited and will be punished if caught red-handed.
Smoking weed is allowed in cannabis clubs. However, you must be a club member to use the club’s services. You cannot enter any club without a membership!
To become a member, you need to register, which requires an official document of identification (ID card, passport or driving licence). Important note: a student ID is not an official document of identification and will not be accepted by the clubs!
Membership costs money. After payment, you can enjoy the club’s services and the products the club offers. Find out what to look out for here, and here’s why you shouldn’t buy weed from street dealers in Spain.
