Location: BC Place [map]
BC Place is a large stadium in downtown Vancouver, next to Rogers Arena. It was built for the 1986 World's Fair opening and closing ceremonies. It was also home to the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2010 Winter Olympics, making them the first ceremonies to be held indoors as BC Place was an indoor domed stadium at the time; currently, the domed roof is being replaced by a new retractable one. Prior to the roof's demolition, it was the world's largest air-supported domed roof. After the new roof's installation, it will be home to the BC Lions of the Canadian Football League and Vancouver Whitecaps, a team that will join MLS in 2011.
