The Washington State Department of Health recently unveiled a new educational page aimed at World Cup tourists who may be unfamiliar with local cannabis products or who are experimenting for the first time.
The page is hosted on the state’s Cannabis Safely website, which launched in 2025 to educate adults of legal age about the risks, rules, and responsibilities of using cannabis in Washington state.
The World Cup 2026 page covers the basic rules of consumption in the state — only individuals aged 21+ are allowed to buy or use cannabis, and public consumption and driving under the influence are prohibited — as well as a breakdown of the cannabis industry’s labeling requirements, possession limits, and an FAQ containing tips for inexperienced consumers. The website also reminds travelers that traveling with cannabis across state or international lines is still prohibited.
Other sections of the Cannabis Safely website cover in depth the potential health risks associated with cannabis, warnings about high-potency products, and tips for staying safe while consuming cannabis.
