Smoke-Free Outdoor Areas

It is illegal to smoke or use e-cigarettes in many outdoor places. This includes:

  • Within 10 metres of children’s play equipment in outdoor public places.
  • Public swimming pools
  • Sporting grounds and other areas used for organised sporting events
  • Public transport stops and platforms, including ferry wharves and taxi ranks
  • Within 4 metres of an entrance to a public building
  • Outdoor dining areas

To help businesses and sporting clubs highlight outdoor smoke-free areas, there are tiles you can upload to your website or use on your social media page to remind your customers about smoke-free areas.

Kids' play areas are smoke free. It's the law.
