Plaza of Nations, Entertainment complex at False Creek, Vancouver, Canada

The Plaza of Nations features multiple connected buildings with a glass-roofed exterior space designed for large public gatherings near the waterfront.

The structure emerged as part of the British Columbia Pavilion during Expo '86, marking a transformation period in Vancouver's urban development.

Before its partial demolition, the venue hosted numerous concerts by international artists and served as a filming location for television series and movies.

The complex maintained a capacity of 4,500 people for performances until 2006, when safety concerns regarding the glass roof led to modifications.

Businessman Oei Hong Leong purchased the Plaza of Nations from Li Ka-shing in 1989 for 40 million Canadian dollars.
