COMPLIANCE, STATE BY STATE
What you can show on in-store screens, by state
Menus, prices, specials, brand promos: what each state allows on the screens inside a licensed dispensary, with the section numbers cited. Reviewed against the primary sources. Not legal advice.
Every state covered here allows menus, prices, and product information on screens inside the licensed premises. The differences are in the conditions: whether the screens may be visible from outside, what counts as attractive to minors, whether discounts and free products can be promoted, whether warnings are required, and whether the regulator has to approve advertising first. Each state below links to the detailed section with citations. Last reviewed September 24, 2026.

Pick your state
Arizona
adult-use establishments and medical dispensaries; posting rules differ by program
Since June 30, 2026, Arizona’s advertising statute requires every advertisement to carry the warning "Do not use marijuana if you are under twenty-one years of age or pregnant. " in black on white covering 10 percent of the ad area, and it bars advertising with potency or THC levels, images of consumption, cartoon, toy, or fictional characters, child-marketed brand look-alikes, and untrue health statements.

California
all licensees, adult-use and medicinal, under the same rules
A California dispensary’s in-store screens are "marketing" under the statute, which expressly includes point-of-sale advertising, so content must be truthful and consistent with product labels, must not encourage under-21 use or be attractive to children, must not make untrue or misleading health claims, and should carry the licensee’s license number. Indoor signs not visible from a public place are exempt from the 1,000-foot school and daycare rule, and a store’s own menu is not an "advertising sign" under the statute in any case.
Rules and citations → California Department of Cannabis Control (DCC)
Colorado
all regulated marijuana businesses; retail and medical store rules run in parallel
Colorado’s "Advertising" definition covers paid communications and excludes branding and consumer education, so a store’s own menu is generally outside the advertising rules, but rules that reach any sign still apply: no deceptive or misleading statements on any sign or document given to a consumer, no content that targets under-21s such as cartoon characters, and no claims that products are safe because they are tested or state-regulated. Product may not be visible from outside the licensed premises and may be displayed only in the restricted access area; nothing addresses screen visibility, video, motion, sign counts, or pre-approval.

Connecticut
all cannabis establishments: dispensary facilities, hybrid retailers, and adult-use retailers, with a few medical-specific differences
In-store screens in Connecticut may show prices and discounts: the statute allows discount offers inside a dispensary facility, retailer, or hybrid retailer while barring them in outside advertising, and the Department’s policies require the price of all cannabis to be conspicuously posted in the store and on the website. Content may not include any image of the cannabis plant or leaf, anything appealing to under-21s, depictions of people under 25 consuming, or curative, therapeutic, or wellness claims; a screen may not use loudspeakers to advertise, and nothing cannabis-related may be clearly visible from outside.
Rules and citations → Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection (DCP), Cannabis Control Division
Delaware
adult-use marijuana establishments and retail stores under 4 DE Admin. Code 5001; medical compassion centers under 16 Del. C. § 4919A
Delaware retail stores may not let product be viewed from outside, and advertising may not be placed on the side of a building or in another publicly visible location, so screens should not be readable from the street. Advertising and marketing may not depict consumption, make health or benefit claims, promote overconsumption, imitate branded consumer products, or use cartoons, caricatures, balloons, toys, or images of minors; the earlier bans on neon colors, fruit shapes, and celebrity likenesses were removed in March 2026.
Rules and citations → Delaware Office of the Marijuana Commissioner
Florida
medical only; licensed medical marijuana treatment centers
The only binding Florida text today is the statute: a treatment center may not advertise in any way visible from a street, sidewalk, park, or other public place, so an in-store screen must be positioned so it cannot be seen from outside. 227, was published August 24, 2026 and had not been adopted as of September 24, 2026.
Rules and citations → Florida Department of Health, Office of Medical Marijuana Use (OMMU)
Illinois
adult-use and medical dispensing organizations
The Illinois statute defines "advertise" to include the display of window and interior signs, so in-store screens fall under the advertising section. Screen content may not be false or misleading, promote overconsumption, depict consumption, make health or therapeutic claims, show a cannabis leaf or bud, or use imagery that appeals to minors; educational messages are exempt.
Rules and citations → Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR)
Kentucky
medical only; all licensed cannabis businesses
Kentucky is a medical-only market where the statute and rule prohibit advertising medicinal cannabis sales by any "advertising device," with exceptions limited to identifying signs on the property, directory and publication listings, event sponsorship, and an informational website or social media presence. No provision addresses in-store menus or screens, so their status is not settled.
Maine
adult-use under 28-B M.R.S. § 702 and 18-691 C.M.R. ch. 30; medical under 22 M.R.S. § 2429-B
Adult-use stores in Maine may display signs on the licensed premises, and ordinary prices and discounts may be shown. Advertising may not depict consumption, make potency claims beyond listing cannabinoid content, make curative, therapeutic, or health-benefit claims, target minors, imitate candy, show risky activities, claim products are safe because they are regulated or tested, or encourage rapid consumption.
Maryland
adult-use and medical; every cannabis licensee
Any visual or digital matter calculated to induce cannabis sales is an advertisement in Maryland, and the statute bars content that targets or is attractive to people under 21, shows consumption, promotes intoxication, is obscene, or violates the Consumer Protection Act; therapeutic or medical claims need scientific support and side-effect disclosure. Advertising in a publicly visible location, including on a device or graphic display, is prohibited, and the Administration’s 2025 guidance gives "a window facing the street" as an example, so screens visible from outside are a risk.
Rules and citations → Maryland Cannabis Administration (MCA)
Massachusetts
adult-use under 935 CMR 500.105(4); medical under 935 CMR 501.105(4), which has no discount ban; co-located licensees follow the stricter rule
An adult-use store in Massachusetts may show products, strains, and prices on an in-store screen; the rule expressly permits posting prices in the store. It may not show discounts, sale pricing, strike-through prices, loyalty or points programs, coupons, or free product, and the Commission’s May 2024 bulletin applied that ban to in-store and online menus.
Michigan
medical and adult-use licensees, under one rule
Michigan regulates advertising content rather than in-store media. No false or misleading statements on any sign, no health claims unless FDA-qualified, and product must be presented as "marihuana" for people 21 and older or "medical marihuana" for registered patients.
Minnesota
adult-use and medical cannabis businesses
By statutory definition, "advertisement" includes interior signs in a cannabis business, so an in-store screen that promotes products, brands, or sales is subject to the advertising statute: it must carry the OCM warning text, and it may not contain false or misleading statements, unverified health or therapeutic claims, content promoting overconsumption, imagery that appeals to under-21s, depictions of under-21 consumption, or alcohol imagery. No restriction on displaying prices or discounts was found, but retailers may not give away product, so "free product" promotions are out.
Rules and citations → Minnesota Office of Cannabis Management (OCM)
Missouri
medical and adult-use facilities, under the same rules
In-store screens are advertisements in Missouri because the definition covers video and electronic means, so their content must satisfy the same four limits as a billboard: nothing false or misleading, no curative or therapeutic claims without FDA approval, no content attractive to children (including animal or fruit shapes and cartoon or caricature humans), and no brand statements inconsistent with the label. Prices and discounts may be shown; no rule restricts price or discount advertising, and the dispensary rule acknowledges discounted or waived prices.
Rules and citations → Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, Division of Cannabis Regulation
Montana
adult-use and medical licensees
Montana bars licensees from advertising marijuana or marijuana products except through age-gated electronic advertising, and prohibits television, radio, print, billboards, mascots, and youth-appealing imagery. Inside the licensed premises, though, the rule states that information about special pricing, sales, or discounts on display within a licensed premises is not advertising, and the Department’s guide repeats this, so an in-store screen may show products, prices, sales, and discounts.
Rules and citations → Montana Department of Revenue, Cannabis Control Division
Nevada
adult-use and medical; every cannabis establishment
A Nevada dispensary screen can show menus, prices, specials, brand logos, and product images. The CCB’s 2023 guidance treats in-store signage and displays that stay inside the facility as not "advertising" for the warning requirement, while printed menus are advertising; digital in-store menus are not expressly addressed.
Rules and citations → Nevada Cannabis Compliance Board (CCB)
New Jersey
adult-use retailers under N.J.A.C. 17:30; medical alternative treatment centers under N.J.A.C. 17:30A, with stricter signage rules
Inside a New Jersey store, a screen may carry product listings, brand imagery, and safe-use information, and interior advertising is exempt from the 200-foot school buffer. Any advertisement of a cannabis product must carry the full CRC warning and a statement that the business is licensed by the State, and the rule states no in-premises exemption.
Rules and citations → New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission (NJ-CRC)
New Mexico
adult-use and medical; all licensees
Screens inside a New Mexico store may show menus, prices, and brand elements. Since July 1, 2024 the statute excludes a sign or display permanently affixed to a licensed premises from "advertising," but the Cannabis Control Division’s rule still requires "Please Consume Responsibly" and five warnings at 10 percent of the largest type on any public-facing advertising or marketing material, and the Division’s position on digital in-store menus is not settled.

New York
adult-use licensees under 9 NYCRR Part 129 and § 123.10; medical registered organizations are governed by Part 113, not covered here
OCM treats menus as advertisements but expressly allows prices, potency, and images on them, and allows promotional pricing on menus inside the premises. 5 times wholesale) and tax is computed on the pre-discount price; giveaways and free or donated product remain prohibited.
Rules and citations → New York State Office of Cannabis Management (OCM)
Ohio
medical, adult-use, and dual-use dispensaries, under one DCC rule since January 15, 2026
A single Division of Cannabis Control rule, effective January 15, 2026, now governs advertising for medical, adult-use, and dual-use dispensaries and, per the Division, replaces the former Board of Pharmacy rule and its $100-per-advertisement fee, although that older rule still appears on the state code site. In-store screens are treated as advertising: no health-related statements of any kind on menus (the Division lists words like "relaxing," "sleepy," and "pain relief"), no depictions of consumption, no content attractive to children, product names must match the registered names, and any depiction of packaging must show the DCC seal and THC symbol.
Rules and citations → Ohio Department of Commerce, Division of Cannabis Control (DCC)
Oklahoma
medical only; all commercial licensees
Oklahoma’s rules are content-based. Advertising may not be deceptive, false, or misleading, may not promote overconsumption, may not make curative or therapeutic claims, may not depict a child or underage person consuming, may not use toys, cartoons, or characters that suggest a child, and may not be especially appealing to people under 18.
Rules and citations → Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority (OMMA)
Oregon
OLCC-licensed retailers (adult-use, including sales to OMMP patients under a medical endorsement)
An in-store screen that shows the store’s name with marijuana words or symbols, or shows product brand names, is "advertising" under OLCC rules and must follow them: no deceptive or misleading statements, no content that targets people under 21 (minors, cartoons, toys), no curative or therapeutic claims unsupported by scientific evidence, no depiction of consumption, and nothing that encourages use for intoxication or excessive consumption. A separate clause bars false or misleading statements on any sign or material given to a consumer, and OLCC can order a non-conforming sign, display, or advertisement removed.
Rules and citations → Oregon Liquor and Cannabis Commission (OLCC)
Pennsylvania
medical only; every medical marijuana organization
1. The regulation states no exemption for in-store menus or screens, but the Department’s approval form attests that submitted materials will not be provided to patients or the public at the facility, so how the Department treats in-store screens is not settled; confirm with the Office of Medical Marijuana before deploying promotional content.
Rules and citations → Pennsylvania Department of Health, Office of Medical Marijuana
Rhode Island
all cannabis establishment licensees, adult-use and medical
Rhode Island defines advertising broadly as calling public attention to a product or service and states no in-store carve-out, so a menu or promo screen should be treated as advertising. " It may not suggest curative or unproven therapeutic effects, target or appeal to minors (animal or cartoon characters, toys, cartoon writing, images of minors), use fluorescent or neon colors, show consumption or transfer of cannabis, encourage excessive consumption, include alcohol or nicotine content, or depict people under the influence, and it may not be displayed within 500 feet of a K-12 school.
Rules and citations → Rhode Island Cannabis Control Commission
Washington
adult-use licensees, including retailers with a medical endorsement
A screen inside a Washington store is not "outdoor advertising" as long as it is not on the inside of a window facing out and not clearly visible from the public right-of-way. A screen that is visible from outside counts as one of the four permitted 1,600-square-inch signs and may show only the trade name, location, and nature of the business, with no plant or product imagery.
