BC Place

BC Place is a stadium in downtown Vancouver with a movable roof that can open or close. The seating areas hold more than fifty thousand people across several tiers, offering clear views of the playing field.

The stadium was built in the early 1980s and was then the largest air-supported domed stadium in the world. Later, the facility received a new mechanical roof that transformed it into a modern multi-purpose venue.

Local sports teams use the stadium for home games, with soccer fans enjoying the green pitch and open roof on summer days. On game days, the surrounding streets fill with supporters in jerseys making their way to their seats.

The easiest way to reach the venue is by SkyTrain, with Stadium-Chinatown and Yaletown-Roundhouse stations offering direct access. Several bus lines and False Creek ferries complete the transport options and allow flexible planning.

In September 2023, over sixty-five thousand spectators came to an Ed Sheeran concert, marking the highest attendance ever recorded at the stadium. This number shows how the movable roof creates extra capacity for special events.
