Little Rock follows the Arkansas Clean Indoor Air Act and adds park and venue restrictions, with vaping treated similarly near entrances, playgrounds, and outdoor dining.
The Arkansas Clean Indoor Air Act bans smoking in most enclosed workplaces, and Little Rock applies additional restrictions in city parks, playgrounds, near entrances to public buildings, and at War Memorial venues. Vaping receives parallel treatment under updated state guidance. Signage requirements apply to compliant establishments, and Little Rock Parks and Recreation enforces park rules through citations. Outdoor smoking buffers near patio dining are managed by individual restaurants under their permits, varying by establishment.
Smoking in prohibited zones can result in fines, with establishments facing escalating penalties for failing to enforce or post signage.
