420-Friendly Date Ideas (Where Legal) for Adults 21+

Looking for 420-friendly date ideas that are actually fun, relaxed and safe? You are in the right place. Whether you are both cannabis fans, one of you is and one of you is not, or you just want date ideas with a chill vibe, this list has you covered. First, the ground rules: everything here is for adults 21 and over, only where cannabis is legal, and only in places where using it is allowed.

The ground rules for any 420-friendly date

• 21 and over, where legal. Know your local laws. Many places that allow cannabis still ban using it in public, and hotels and rentals often have their own rules.
• Never drive high. Plan rides before you start: a rideshare, a sober friend, or a date where nobody needs to go anywhere.
• Start low and go slow. Especially with edibles, which can take a while to kick in. Wait before having more.
• No pressure, ever. Using is always optional. A great 420-friendly date works just as well for the person who does not partake.
• Not medical advice. If you have health questions, talk with a doctor.

Cozy 420-friendly date ideas at home

For a second or third date, once you both trust each other and feel comfortable, a night in can be the most relaxed option. Keep first dates in public. Talk ahead of time about what each of you is comfortable with, so nobody is surprised when they walk in the door.

• Movie marathon night. Pick a theme: nature documentaries, animated classics or the best bad movies ever made.
• Build-your-own snack bar. Nachos, popcorn bar, a dessert board. Let each person bring one surprise.
• Cook something together. A simple recipe, music on, no pressure for it to look perfect.
• Board games or a puzzle. Low-key, a little competitive, lots of laughing.
• Stargazing from a backyard or balcony. Blankets, a stargazing app and a playlist.
• Vinyl and talk night. Take turns playing albums that changed your life.

Food, flavor and creative date ideas

Food dates are a natural fit, and they work whether or not anyone is partaking:

• A dessert crawl. Three spots, one treat each, rate them as you go.
• Late-night taco or noodle run. Find the best spot in town together.
• A farmers market morning. Sample everything, then cook what you buy.
• A cooking class. Learn something new as a team.

Creative and chill outings

• Paint-and-sip style class. Make terrible art together and give each other your masterpieces.
• Pottery or crafting. Hands busy, conversation easy.
• A planetarium, aquarium or light show. Beautiful, calm and full of things to talk about.
• Live music. A small, laid-back venue where you can step outside to chat.
• A comedy show. Laughing together is a great start to any relationship.

Outdoor dates with a mellow vibe

Nature and a relaxed mood go well together. Just remember that public consumption is usually not allowed on trails or in parks, and safety comes first outdoors.

• An easy sunrise or sunset hike on a popular trail, with plenty of water.
• A picnic with good snacks and a speaker playing quiet music.
• A scenic drive with a sober driver to a lookout point.
• A botanical garden stroll. Slow, pretty and easy to talk.

420-friendly date ideas in Las Vegas

Las Vegas has a lot of options for cannabis-friendly adults, as long as you follow Nevada's rules on where anyone can consume. Look into licensed consumption lounges where they operate, check the rules at any hotel or rental before you book, and plan on rideshares. Off the Strip, food halls, late-night dessert spots, comedy nights, desert sunsets in cooler months and light displays all make easy, relaxed dates.

Dating someone who does not partake?

Every idea above works with only one person partaking, or with neither. Talk about it ahead of time. Ask what they are comfortable being around. Keep it outdoors or in a well-ventilated space if they are okay with it nearby, and skip it entirely if they are not. Respect is the most attractive thing you can bring to any date.

How to make any of these dates great

• Suggest a specific plan. "Dessert crawl Friday at 8?" is easier to say yes to than "Want to hang out sometime?"
• Bring good questions. Ask about what they love, not just what they do for work.
• Give a real compliment. Something specific they chose, like their playlist or their taste in tacos.
• Keep your phone in your pocket. Full attention is the best date gift there is.
• End warmly. If you had fun, say so, and call the next day.
