What’s in store for the cannabis community once California’s consumption lounges fully catch their stride? Look to Palm Springs for a glimpse at the (possible) future.
This spot is technically in Cathedral City — about a seven-mile drive from downtown Palm Springs — but it’s definitely worth hailing a ride-share to check it out, especially if you’re in the mood for a weed-enhanced bingo game. Buyer and manager Matthew Sigurdson says the list of events and activities at the dispensary and lounge includes live music, drag shows and folks gathering to watch UFC fights and football games.
Located in a former bank building , the 1,800-square-foot, 75-person-capacity lounge still has a bit of the bank-lobby vibe to it — in a good way — with an assortment of dark leather couches and chairs arranged around glass-topped coffee tables, a couple of cafe-style tables in one corner and natural light streaming through the windows.
Sigurdson says the dispensary and lounge spaces were designed to make older customers feel comfortable. And Sigurdson knows of what he speaks. During my brief mid-January visit, at least two 80-somethings popped in to make purchases, and 67-year-old voice actor Scott Lawler was posted up at the bar. Although Lawler says he could just as easily consume at home, he prefers to visit the Vault. “I’m here about three times a week,” says Lawler. “It’s social. I like the people. I like the LGBTQ representation. I think this [place] is a great example of what cannabis can be.
