Beginning April 11, 2019 Alaska's licensed marijuana retailers can apply for a "special onsite use endorsement" to allow customers to smoke marijuana at cannabis stores. The law requires a physical "consumption area" separated by a wall or secure door from the retail area. The consumption area could also be an outdoor patio. There must be sufficient ventilation if inside.
