| Bill Copeland Arena (MAP) |
| Includes two arenas that accommodate ice skating and other
winter sports and inline skating and lacrosse in spring and summer. The Bill
Copeland Sports Centre is a state-of-the-art facility that has been hailed as a
model for other community sports centres. Spacious, stylish and filled with
natural light, it defies the usual image we have of a hockey arena. That's
because it's much more than an arena. Visitors are struck by the executive-style
appointments, the elegant interior design and the versatility of the building.
The NHL regulation ice rink is lined with windows and features retractable seats
and removable boards that transform it into a convention and trade show space.
The centre is also connected to Burnaby Lake Arena so additional space is only
steps away. The exceptional acoustic, lighting and sound systems make it ideal
not only for large sporting events but also for concerts and graduation
ceremonies.
