How do private Cannabis Social Clubs work in Spain?
Cannabis Social Clubs are entities registered with the local authorities and which operate under Spanish law as private members-only associations where adults (21+) can safely and responsibly consume cannabis in a legal, non-profit making environment.
Who can join a private Cannabis Social Club?
Reputable cannabis clubs allow new members who have been referred by existing members. Our team will refer you for membership at any of the clubs we recommend at no cost. New members must be over 21, be able to provide valid ID, an address in Spain and agree to adhere strictly to club rules.
Is weed legal in Spain?
Cannabis containing THC is considered an illegal substance in Spain, but there are some interesting nuances to the laws there that make it a bit of a grey area. For example, it’s legal to consume cannabis in private because you are protected by stringent privacy laws. This is why private cannabis social clubs registered as non-profit making associations can guarantee you a secure, legal environment in which to consume cannabis; community members can legally grow and use and enjoy cannabis together. On the other hand, possession/consumption of cannabis in a public space is illegal. Whilst possession of small amounts has been decriminalized, if you are stopped and searched you may be liable to a fine and your stash will most likely be confiscated.
