DRESS ACCORDINGLY
Be reminded that BC Place is an open-air stadium regardless if the roof is open or closed. Dress accordingly based on temperature outdoors.
CASHLESS VENUE
BC Place is a cashless venue. Cash-to-card stations available at Sections 235 and 446.
REUSABLE CUP PROGRAM
All draft beer, cocktails, and wine are served in reusable cups. After enjoying their beverage, guests are asked to drop their cup in the designated reusable cups bins around the stadium. The reusable cup program eliminates the need for new materials and manufacturing for each serving, helping conserve valuable environmental resources, while also keeping beverages colder for longer.
HIDDEN DISABILITIES SUNFLOWER
The HDS is a global initiative that uses a sunflower symbol to discreetly indicate that someone has a non-visible disability and may need additional support, understanding and/or time. Guests will be able to access a Sunflower lanyard or sticker from Guest Services (Sections 234 and 446), which they can either keep or loan.
HEARING LOOP
Assistive listening technology is available for guests with hearing aids visiting Guest Services at Section 234 and 446, and at Gate H Will Call.
