| B.C. Place Stadium
Conceive. Believe. Behold. Imagine yourself in the heart of one of the most beautiful, pristine, and active cities in the world, Vancouver, British Columbia. That’s where you’ll find BC Place, a place where the community comes to live their dreams. As home to some of the greatest moments in BC’s sports history and future host of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games Opening and Closing Ceremonies, at BC Place, Big Dreams Live Here.
With great size, comes great versatility. Imagine, in just a few hours, BC Place can be converted from a football stadium packed with 60,000 screaming BC Lions fans to a concert bowl party with the Rolling Stones.
As the world's largest air supported domed stadium, BC Place is also home to the province's largest trade and consumer shows including the Boat Show, Home Show and Auto Show. With major events happening over 200 days each year, BC Place truly is a place where dreams come alive.
BC Place provides the crucial link of bringing the province’s events and spectators together, while fulfilling its mandate of economic generation. The Stadium averages over 200 event days per year. Beyond the invaluable community benefit of BC Lions football and events like the Vancouver Sun Run, the amount of economic activity generated by the venue by fiscal year end 2007 was nearly $58.1million.
