Canada Place, Convention center and cruise terminal at Vancouver Waterfront, Canada
Canada Place extends along Burrard Inlet with white roof structures shaped like sails, marking the northern edge of downtown Vancouver's harbor area.
The building opened in 1986 as the Canadian Pavilion for the World Exposition on Transportation and Communication, transforming Vancouver's waterfront development.
The facility hosts numerous Canadian celebrations throughout the year, including the nation's largest Canada Day celebration outside of Ottawa on July 1st.
The convention center connects directly to Waterfront Station through covered walkways, providing access to the SkyTrain, SeaBus, and West Coast Express transportation services.
The FlyOver Canada attraction within Canada Place offers a flight simulation experience across the country using a suspended chair system and spherical screen.
