Cannabis laws in Belgium

Possession, growth, and sale of cannabis are all prohibited in Belgium. There is, however, a distinction between possessing little amounts of cannabis (under 3 grams) and possessing large quantities of cannabis (above 3 grams). In such circumstances, a punishment of 90 to 150 euros is imposed. However, aggravating conditions, such as smoking in a public area or near minors, can result in a fine of thousands of dollars or possibly jail time.
It is not advisable to smoke weed in public places in Leuven; even if the police officer is friendly and just a minor fine is imposed, there is always the chance of getting into deeper difficulty. You should never carry more than 3 grams of cannabis on you at any time, as this can lead to more serious consequences than just a fine.

Getting weed in Leuven

Because Leuven is a student city, it has a vibrant nightlife and cannabis is available for purchase. At night, dealers can be found strolling the Old Market, which is home to the majority of the taverns and pubs frequented by students. If you don’t see anyone who appears to be a dealer, talk to some of the students; many of them smoke and should be able to get you some weed or put you in touch with someone who does. A gram of marijuana costs on average 10 euros.
