Join the
inside crowd for a behind-the scenes look at B.C. Place! From rock
stars to royalty, we've welcomed them all. Now you can tour behind the
scenes, to the media lounges, locker rooms, the playing field, the
Pacific Rim Suites and all the places visited by your favorite
celebrities.
What makes B.C. Place
Stadium amazing? For starters, it's the biggest air-supported domed
stadium in the world. More than 60,000 people can stay warm and dry
while they take in their favorite events. The only thing between them
and the elements outside is the thin fibreglass and Teflon roof, high
above. It's like walking under a fabric sky -- one that's only 1/30 inch
thick but stronger than steel.
To top things off, B.C.
Place Stadium is right in the middle of one of North America's most
beautiful cities. We're in the heart of downtown Vancouver's vibrant
Entertainment District and home to the
B.C. Sports Hall of Fame
and Museum and Close to transit, theatres,
hotels, and parking.
There are over
25,000 parking spaces within a 15 minute walk (and that's through some
pretty nice scenery!). Greater Vancouver is a cosmopolitan city of more
than 1.5 million people on the west coast of British Columbia. With its
business savvy and stunning natural setting, Vancouver's fast
becoming an international centre for commerce and tourism.
