    NEWS RELEASE For Immediate Release Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture 2018TAC0013-000359 March 9, 2018 HSBC Canada rugby sevens brings the world’s eyes to B.C. VANCOUVER – When 16 of the world’s top men’s rugby sevens nations hit the pitch at Vancouver’s BC Place Stadium this weekend, their friends and families around the globe will be cheering them on, thanks in part to funding through B.C.'s Tourism Events Program (TEP). The World Rugby Sevens Series has a growing international audience. This weekend, over 100 accredited media will attend from Japan, France, Australia, United Kingdom, New Zealand, the United States, Fiji, Kenya, Samoa and elsewhere. TEP funding is providing $125,000 for broadcast activities, enabling millions around the globe to follow the action. A further $25,000 from the provincial Sport Branch is supporting event hosting. “I’m excited to welcome the popular HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series back to B.C. for the third time,” said Lisa Beare, Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture. “There is very significant international exposure, tourism impact and economic activity brought to our province through this event. B.C. rugby fans are in for a weekend of great sport!” Vancouver is the sixth stop on the 2018 HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series. With over one-third of the more than 76,000 expected spectators attending from outside the Lower Mainland, the impact on the local tourism economy is high. Visitors are expected to stay for three days, while athletes, coaches and officials are here for seven days. Organizers estimate the economic impact at over $24 million.
