STADIUM HISTORY

BC Place opened in 1983 and underwent a major renovation in 2011 that added a retractable cable-supported roof. Capacity 54,500. Home of the Vancouver Whitecaps (MLS) and BC Lions (CFL). Hosted the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2010 Winter Olympics. Selected for FIFA World Cup 2026 group-stage matches plus a quarter-final.

GETTING THERE & LOCAL CONDITIONS

Located in downtown Vancouver. Vancouver International Airport (YVR) is 25 minutes via SkyTrain. June-July Vancouver weather: mild and partly-cloudy (18-22°C / 65-72°F) with low rainfall in early summer.

Venue betting note

Mild Pacific Northwest climate + retractable roof flexibility favours technical football. Vancouver's lower humidity than US East Coast venues benefits possession-based teams.
