Joining a cannabis club in Granada is straightforward once you know how it works — but it does not work the way most visitors expect. You cannot walk in off the street, and you cannot complete everything online. Here is exactly what the process looks like.
The short version
- Request an invitation from a club before you arrive.
- Receive the invitation, the address and the opening hours.
- Show up in person with your passport or ID card.
- Sign the membership form, pay the association fee, get your card.
- Enjoy the club — on the premises only.
Total time at the door: usually ten to fifteen minutes.
Why you need an invitation
Spanish cannabis associations are private, non-profit entities. They are legally forbidden from advertising, recruiting in public, or admitting the general public. A referral or invitation from the association is what makes your membership legitimate.
This is also why you should be wary of anyone handing out flyers or approaching tourists near Plaza Nueva offering to get you into a club. Legitimate clubs do not work that way. Request your invitation directly from the club instead — with Weed Granada you can do it through the form on our homepage.
What you need to bring
- Valid photo ID or passport. No ID, no membership — there are no exceptions.
- Proof that you are 18 or over. Some Granada clubs set their own minimum at 21; ours is 18.
- Cash for the membership fee. Many associations do not take cards.
- Your invitation, on your phone or printed.
Can tourists join a cannabis club in Granada?
Yes. Granada’s clubs are used to international members and welcome visitors from anywhere. You do not need to be a Spanish resident, and you do not need to speak Spanish — staff at the tourist-facing clubs speak English, and often French, Italian and German too.
What you do need is to plan a little ahead. Request your invitation a day or two before you want to visit rather than on the night.
How much does membership cost?
Each association sets its own membership fee, and it covers the running of the club rather than any particular product. You will always be told the exact figure before you sign or pay anything — if a place is vague about costs, walk away.
What happens once you are a member
You receive a membership card. Show it at reception each time you arrive and you are in. Members can use the lounge, the bar and the games area for as long as the club is open.
The rules are short and non-negotiable:
- Everything stays inside the club. Nothing leaves with you.
- No consumption in the street, in a park, on a terrace or in your hotel.
- No photos or video of other members.
- No bringing guests who are not registered members.
- No reselling or sharing outside the association.
Breaking these rules gets you removed from the association, and repeated breaches are what get clubs shut down. For the legal background, see our page on cannabis law in Granada.
Common mistakes visitors make
- Turning up without an invitation. You will be turned away, politely.
- Leaving with cannabis. The moment you step outside with it, you are in public and the club’s protection ends.
- Following a street promoter. Legitimate associations never recruit on the street.
- Forgetting ID. A photo of your passport on your phone is not enough at most clubs.
