Ever since Colorado and Washington state first implemented legalization of recreational cannabis, searches for “What’s the closest dispensary to the airport?” in legal states have skyrocketed. We’re here to answer that question.

Whether you’re a curious tourist just touching down in a state with legal adult-use cannabis, or a medical patient that’s been away from your home and source of medication for too long, these are the closest dispensaries (excluding delivery services) to major airports in each of the largest legal cannabis markets. Happy travels!

Cannabis Legal for Recreational Purposes:

Denver International Airport (Colorado)

The Closest Marijuana Dispensary to the Denver International Airport

Closest Dispensary: Medicine Man Denver

Address: 4750 Nome St., Denver, CO

Miles from Airport: 13

At 13 miles out, Medicine Man Denver (take the Peña Boulevard to East 56th route) beats Lightshade’s Peoria location by a hair for the closest dispensary to the inconveniently-distant-from-downtown Denver airport. Given that Denver’s such a canna-tourist destination, you’d think someone else would have moved in a bit closer by now – that said, a closer Native Roots location is in the works to open later in 2017.

Best Munchies at DEN: Magic Pan (think bananas and caramel wrapped up in piping hot crêpes).

Colorado Springs Airport (Colorado)

Cannabis Legal for Medical Consumption (with Reciprocity)*:

*States with reciprocity, like Nevada, are able to accept out-of-state medical marijuana cards at local dispensaries. Note: While Michigan technically also offers reciprocity, it’s not laid out in black and white terms, and Michigan cops aren’t always understanding with out-of-state consumers, so we still recommend having an in-state authorization, hence its exclusion from this section.
