Kentucky officially legalized medical cannabis on January 1, 2025, following the signing of Senate Bill 47 (SB 47) on March 31, 2023. This landmark legislation has opened the door for a new era of cannabis businesses across the state, including dispensaries, cultivators, and processors.
While the medical cannabis program is in its early stages, with dispensaries beginning to open in cities like Lexington in early 2026, the current laws prohibit smoking cannabis and restrict consumption to private residences. As of now, cannabis consumption lounges are not legal in Kentucky, and public consumption remains strictly prohibited. Any future changes to allow consumption lounges would require significant legislative reform.
