Centerplate team donates over 200 pizzas

February 23rd, 2021

The Centerplate team at BC Place organized a donation of more than 230 pizzas to help feed our neighbours on the Downtown Eastside through The Salvation Army Vancouver Harbour Light today.

Since the postponement of major events at the stadium in March 2020, BC Place and Centerplate have donated over 15,000 pounds of food to benefit our local communities.

We want to thank our team for their unwavering commitment to serving others throughout the COVID-19 pandemic!
