BC Place Stadium

BC Place was originally built in 1982 and has since been home to many sports teams, concerts and events over the years. It was once an air supported roof that looked like a gigantic marshmallow in downtown Vancouver, but has since undergone major renovations. It is now a cable supported roof that also has a retractable section. Though the roof is still made from fabric, it's strong enough that it could support up to seven million kilograms (7,000 tonnes) of snow. As it's downtown, there are plenty of restaurants close by and it's easily accessible by taxi, car and public transportation. Catch a CFL game or watch one of your favorite musicians take the stage here.
