History
Established in 1989.
Established in 1989, Lalaland has been part of the Venice scene for over three decades, surviving changing trends, shifting laws, and the ever-colorful energy of the boardwalk. What started as a humble glass shop has grown (and occasionally re-grown) into a neighborhood staple for smoke culture, wellness, and countercultural vibes.
Over the years, the shop has changed hands a few times, each owner adding their own twist while honoring the laid-back, community-focused roots that make Venice, well, Venice. From the early days of classic water pipes and incense to today’s sleek vapes and local CBD lines, Lalaland has always kept one foot in tradition and the other in what’s next.
We will soon be expanding to an online store, offering our current variety and more online. Be on the lookout for our upcoming website!
Meet the Manager: .. ..
I took over Lalaland over a decade ago with a mission: to keep the soul of Venice alive, one hand-blown pipe and chill conversation at a time. I'm a lifelong Californian with a background in business, wellness, and independent retail.
When the opportunity came to carry the torch, I saw more than just a business, I saw a piece of Venice history worth preserving. This place has always been a local anchor. It's not just about selling smoke gear, it's about creating a space where people feel welcome, curious, and part of something real.
Every day someone walks in with a story, about the boardwalk, about the old shop, about life. That’s why I love this place. It’s never just about the products, it’s about the people.
