nuEra is a vertically integrated Cannabis company located in Illinois. We were a pioneer in the Illinois cannabis market, one of the first licensed operators in the medical pilot program, and have been serving the Illinois medical cannabis community since 2016 with locations in Chicago, Aurora, East Peoria, Pekin, Urbana, and Champaign.
The name nuEra highlights the fact that legalization in Illinois didn’t just change the laws on the books – it unleashed a whole new era of cannabis.
An era in which cannabis is safer, higher quality, and available in a greater variety than ever before. Canna-consumers have more methods of consumption, more strains, more precise dosage labeling, and better information about the effects of each of our products than any generation before them.
Our newly acquired cultivation center in Central Illinois currently produces solventless concentrates, flower, and prerolls in a variety of strains with corresponding effects such as pain relief, relaxation, focus, uplift, and more.
We’re in the process of expanding our product offerings to include edibles, vaporizer cartridges, tinctures, and topicals to the Illinois Cannabis market. Welcome to a new era of cannabis!

*Only Chicago, Urbana, and East Peoria locations

Mr. Clean

2 months agonuEra in Urbana is one of the best dispensaries I’ve been to. The staff is always friendly, helpful, and spot-on with product recommendations. Angel, the manager, is so sweet and clearly passionate about creating a welcoming, community-based vibe. I dropped off a copy of my book for her, and she was genuinely appreciative, which speaks to the close-knit energy they’ve built. I recently checked out with Kashif, and he was really nice and made an effort to build rapport during the visit. It’s small interactions like that that show how much the team values customer experience. I truly love what nuEra stands for and look forward to continuing as both a loyal customer and future supporter.

2 weeks agoTyler was incredibly helpful and patient with my questions and the fact I added extra things to my order. He's incredibly kind and, from what I got when we were talking, he cares about being patient and as helpful as he can be. He made what was a long/rough go so much smoother with his kindness, friendly customer service and his incredibly helpful/positive manner. Please make sure Tyler knows this? He made a rough, long day for me go so much smoother during my visit and I hope he stays! He seems to be an excellent addition to your staff. Please make sure he knows this! Your whole staff has been nothing but kind during my visits.... But Tyler is the kindness, most patient, helpful, positive workers I've seen here. Please make sure he knows! I made sure I'd get a card to do a review on Tyler at your Urbana NuEra location. An employee like this deserves recognition for his positive, incredibly helpful work! Thank you, Tyler for your help! 10/17/2025

4 months agoWe loved it! Everyone was so kind and helpful that worked there. They took the time to explain everything very thoroughly and I truly appreciate that. I get flare ups from an old injury and this is what helps to make it a lot more bearable. Thank you! 💚

a month agoSebastian, Tatiana, and Tyler made this an incredible first time experience. Their kindness and patience was a refreshing breath of air. I'd be remiss if I didn't compliment the stores' discretion and fabulous interior. From comfy furniture with informative literature to extensive glass and piece collections, NuEra in Urbana has left a remarkable indent amongst my shopping experiences. I will be returning

2 weeks agoThis is the only Medical shop in Champaign right now and that’s perfectly fine with me. The staff are lovely people, who care and are knowledgeable about their products along with accessories. If you have a medical card, it’s a must. If you don’t, that’s ok they will take care of you either way.
