BC Place Stadium Vancouver BC
|
 What makes B.C. Place
Stadium amazing? For starters, it's the biggest air-supported domed stadium
in the world.
To top things off, B.C.
Place Stadium is right in the middle of one of North America's most
beautiful cities and in the heart of downtown Vancouver's vibrant
Granville Street
Entertainment District.

New BC Place Stadium Vancouver BC Coming in
2011
|
|
BC Place will be closed for construction from April 6th, 2010, shortly
after the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games. The facility will be
available to host events in summer 2011, and will be fully-completed in
time for the Grey Cup in 2011 |
 |
Upon reopening with a retractable roof in 2011, BC Place will become
home to British Columbia’s Major League Soccer (MLS) team. The new
franchise is expected to attract more than 300,000 visitors per season.
A retractable roof for BC Place will create a truly year-round facility,
hosting an estimated 240 event days per year.
The revitalized BC Place will attract additional clients from the
consumer show, concert event and entertainment sectors, as well as film
and television productions, banquets and other special events. |
