Whether it's in a parking lot at a Cookies dispensary, inside the city's only cannabis bar or on Tetra Lounge's outdoor cannabis patio, you'll have plenty of places to puff, pass and party. Cannabis-friendly comedy, bingo and a dispensary celebration are all taking place over the next week, with more to come.
