BC Place to “Light the Night” Red for World Cancer Day

February 4th, 2016

The Northern Lights roof lighting display at BC Place will be illuminated red on February 4 in support of World Cancer Day.
World Cancer Day unites the world’s population in the fight against cancer and aims to save millions of preventable deaths each year by raising awareness and education about the disease and encouraging governments and individuals across the world to take action.

To promote World Cancer Day, the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Canada is asking people to raise awareness of blood cancers by taking action in lighting up the night virtually through a phone app linked to a Google map of Canada.
