Tolerance Level Guesstimation [1= completely illegal, 10= total legalization] – 6
Cannabis and any related activities are entirely illegal. However, you can carry a small amount (less than 5 grams) on you without issues. Any more, and you might face some legal trouble.
Bologna Cannabis Laws
Although cannabis is entirely illegal, the cops are tolerant if you have a small amount on you for personal use. This amount is usually defined as 5 grams of low-quality hash, and 2 to 3 grams of high-quality cannabis.
Law Enforcement
Although you can carry a small amount of weed on you, you might get into trouble if you are found smoking it in public. In some cases, you might come across more tolerant cops who will only fine you or let you off with a warning.
If they do, then you’re a lucky one!
You absolutely cannot distribute or grow cannabis, so be very careful and don’t get caught up in these activities.
Cannabis Prices and Quality
Unfortunately, you might not have good luck when it comes to the price as well as the quality of cannabis in Bologna. While you might find good quality hash oil every once in a while, you might mostly end up with dark, brittle hash, which is just quite bad.
Weed is also not so popular, and even if you find a dealer willing to sell, there are high chances of the quality being quite bad.
As for the price, if you are a tourist, you will most probably be ripped off. Either they will charge a high amount, or the quality of the weed will just be terrible. Either way, you could end up paying 10 to even 15 Euros for just a gram. Try your luck and negotiate if you can.
Where to buy weed in Bologna?
Via Zamboni is a long, 1 km stretch where a lot of young student crowds hang about. Here, you can get some help finding dealers.
Piazza Verdi used to be an excellent place to find dealers, but now, with the installation of cameras and superior surveillance, it is just too risky, so avoid this place.
