About Vancouver

BC Place is the only retractable-roof stadium in Canada. Right in downtown Vancouver with ocean and mountain views, it hosts 7 matches including a Round of 16 fixture. The coolest summer climate of any WC venue.

Getting to the stadium

SkyTrain (Expo & Millennium lines) stops at Stadium-Chinatown station, direct outside the stadium. From YVR airport it’s 25 min on the Canada Line.

Local tip

💡 Walk through Gastown — Vancouver’s oldest neighborhood — just 10 minutes from the stadium. The historic steam clock is a must-see.
