A great visit starts before you leave home. A few small preparations on age, ID, comfort and etiquette keep the day smooth for you, your group and everyone sharing the rooms with you.
Four steps to prepare
- Check the age rule. Entry is for guests aged 21 and over, with no exceptions for any member of your group.
- Prepare your ID. Bring a valid government-issued photo ID and keep it within easy reach.
- Plan your time. Allow a couple of hours so you can see every room without hurrying.
- Ask for support. Contact the team beforehand about step-free routes, seating or other needs.
Why the age and ID policy exists
The museum is built around cannabis culture and history, and the exhibits are designed for adults. Checking age and ID at the door is how the museum respects local laws and keeps the space what it promises to be. It also protects you: when every guest has been checked, you can relax and enjoy the experience without second thoughts.
If anyone in your group is unsure whether their identification qualifies, ask the team ahead of time rather than at the entrance. Clear information in advance prevents disappointment on the day, especially for visitors travelling from out of town who may be carrying documents from another country or region.
What to wear and bring
Think comfort first. Wear shoes you can stand in for a couple of hours and clothing that lets you pose, reach and move. Photo spots are often built at giant scale, so you will be stretching, crouching and leaning into scenes, and flexible outfits make those moments easier.
- A charged phone for photos and video.
- A small bag, since the rooms are best explored with free hands.
- Your valid photo ID and any booking confirmation.
- Patience and good humor, which improve every group photo.
Every room celebrates cannabis culture and history with humor, craft and respect. Visitors who arrive with the same spirit make the museum better for everyone.
Photo etiquette in busy rooms
Photos are a highlight, so shared space matters. Take your shots, then step aside so the next group can use the scene. Avoid blocking walkways, keep flash away from the artwork, and ask before including strangers in the frame. If you are directing a large group, give everyone a quick plan, such as one serious photo and one silly photo, so the session stays short and fun.
Respect the art as well. The giant plant sculptures are handcrafted and detailed, and the interactive exhibits are designed for gentle pressing and posing. Touch only what invites touch, and follow any signs. If something looks unclear, a team member can explain how to use it.
Accessibility and comfort
Comfort is part of the experience. If you need step-free routes, seating or another kind of support, tell the museum before you arrive. The team will help you plan a route that suits you, including places to rest between rooms. Visitors with different needs often enjoy the museum most when they can move at their own pace, and the layout supports that approach.
Responsible enjoyment
Please follow all local laws and enjoy responsibly. The museum is a place for learning, art and play, and it works best when guests treat both the space and each other with respect. Plan how you will travel afterwards, look after friends in your group, and keep the focus on the art and the story behind it.
Booking a group or private event
Birthdays, team outings and friend reunions all fit well here. A group booking or private event gives you room to explore together, and the team can help with timing, space and questions about what suits your guest list. For quick answers about tickets, rules and the exhibits, the FAQ is the best place to start, and the team is happy to help with anything it does not cover.
Timing your visit
When you arrive can change the character of the day. Busy periods bring energy and many photo opportunities with crowds in the background, while quieter periods give you more room to linger and read the displays. There is no wrong choice, but it helps to decide which experience you want. If you are bringing a large group, ask the team about the best times so that everyone can move comfortably and take pictures without long waits.
Give yourself a buffer on both sides of the visit. Arriving early avoids the stress of a rushed entrance, and leaving a little time at the end lets you return to a favorite room for one more look. Most guests find that about two hours is a comfortable length, though people who love photography or history often stay longer.
Traveling with a group
Groups are a big part of the museum’s audience, and a few simple agreements keep everything smooth. Choose a meeting point in case someone is delayed, appoint one person to keep track of tickets and IDs, and agree on a rough schedule so that everyone knows when to regroup. Each guest must be 21 or older, so check before you plan the day rather than at the door.
It also helps to agree on photo etiquette. A short session at each spot, with everyone ready, keeps lines moving and leaves time for other exhibits. Rotating who takes the pictures means that nobody misses out on appearing in the frame.
Planning the rest of your day
Because the museum takes a couple of hours, think about what comes before and after. Eat beforehand so that you are comfortable, and consider how you will travel afterwards, with a plan that looks after everyone in your group. Many visitors combine the museum with other activities in the city, and some save a quiet moment at the end to look through their photos together and pick favorites.
Above all, travel safely, follow all local laws and keep the experience relaxed. The museum is meant to be an enjoyable highlight, and a little planning helps it stay that way.
