Smoke Free Status of Outdoor Places

Last updated: April 30, 2026

Does the law require any outdoor or quasi-outdoor spaces to be smoke free or restrict smoking in any way?

Examples of such places include within a specified distance of doorways, outdoor patios of bars or restaurants, parks/beaches, outdoor stadiums, and outdoor markets.

Out-buildings, courtyards, terraces and other contiguous places

Analysis

Smoking is prohibited in out-buildings, courtyards, terraces and other contiguous places, even if not enclosed, that can by their proximity pass smoke into the interior.
