If they see you, they will kick you out, yes. That said, I smell marijuana at every concert I go to. A vape may be more discreet?

lol. Are you serious? You can not smoke INSIDE…

Yeah, I'd go with a vape (if one absolutely must, which is unlikely) or edible here. OP might be able to get away with smoking inside the National, but if there's somebody nearby that doesn't like it and knows who's smoking, they're going to rat OP out real quick.

You can definitely do bong hits as long as you’re in the balcony.

If they see you blow a cloud or use a lighter they’ll send a terminator in there to snatch you and kick you out, but they can’t kick everyone in the venue out because it smells, just try and be discreet or get high some other way

The National actually has anti weed snipers. Ask me how I know.

Yep, that is what they do, Ive seen it happen, best not to. Also, impolite to smoke indoors, people have allergies ashma etc. unkind to expose people unwillingly to smoke in any form.

I've seen them rush in on smokers. I wouldn't risk getting thrown out.

Legally speaking, smoking in a public place is still illegal in Virginia. Smoking indoors (Where the air units are not separate) is illegal in Virginia.

They have a smoking area that is open air just stage right on the floor. Can't see the stage from there, but you can hear just fine. YMMV with weed, but I've seen plenty of people get away with it out there.

As others have said I’d go with a vape or edible, but if you only have flower you shouldn’t have an issue smoking outside before the show

It's not allowed but you can. Outside in the smoking section would be easier, but we've all smoked a joint in the National at some point. (disclaimer: We've All = My Friends)

Can confirm smoking on the patio outside where the smoking lounge is is a-ok.

why not do it before the show? Smoking in a crowd is a dick move. Or edibles etc.

Take an edible and time it well beforehand. A lot better in my opinion, plus you won’t be offending anybody else in the crowd cause weed smoke is probably the most offensive to most.

Let me know what venues allow people to openly smoke indoors so that I can avoid them

I’ve seen more people booted for smoking at the national than any other venue I’ve been to. Just bring a vape.

You have to put it in a plastic bag and stick it up your butt to get it in the venue, then you have to not tell anyone that’s how you got it in there.
