BC Place, with its unique look, markets itself to film studios with images such as this one.
BC Place Stadium is Canada's first domed stadium. It is located on the north side of False Creek in Vancouver, British Columbia. The stadium, completed in 1982, was built as part of the preparation for Expo 86. It is the world's largest air-supported domed stadium and can seat 60,000 in its mixture of permanent and portable light-blue plastic seats. BC Place has been the home to the B.C. Lions since 1982. The field is a FieldTurf surface that was puchased from Montreal's Olympic Stadium for $1 million (Canadian), and will serve as the site for both the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games. Outside BC Place is the monument to Terry Fox.
