BC Place Vancouver Transportation
Vancouver Stadium Introduction
BC Place Vancouver is one of Canada’s most iconic sporting venues, a modern architectural landmark overlooking the False Creek waterfront. Opened in 1983 and fully renovated in recent years, the stadium now seats 54,000 spectators and serves as the home of the Vancouver Whitecaps (MLS) and the BC Lions (CFL). It has also hosted several major international tournaments, including the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2015 final.
For the FIFA World Cup 2026, BC Place will be one of the busiest stadiums in North America, hosting five group-stage matches, a Round of 32 matchup, and a Round of 16 showdown. With unprecedented travel demand, a reliable transportation plan is essential for fans, visitors, and corporate groups attending matches in Vancouver.
