  • Information Bulletin Bc Place Revitalization Final Cost
    INFORMATION BULLETIN BC PLACE REVITALIZATION FINAL COST VANCOUVER, BC: BC Pavilion Corporation (PavCo) announced today the final cost for the new BC Place is $514 million. The final approved budget for the stadium revitalization project was $563 million. The project was completed $49 million under budget primarily through savings achieved during the Phase 2 Retractable Roof project. BC Place was revitalized in two stages over a period of more than three years, involving more than 5000 skilled professionals and tradespeople. BC Place was awarded ‘Project of the Year’ at the StadiumBusiness Awards in Italy, in May 2012. The stadium has also been nominated for the BC Hydro PowerSmart Excellence Awards in the ‘New Construction’ Category – achieving approximately 38 per cent in electrical savings from eliminating the old air-supported roof. Furthermore, the Rick Hansen foundation recently featured BC Place as an “Accessible Success Story” - for ‘new accessible features of a community facility’. Reopening September 30, 2011, the new BC Place became the new home to Major League Soccer’s Vancouver Whitecaps FC, and home to the returning BC Lions Football Club and the BC Sports Hall of Fame. In its first year, the new multipurpose facility has hosted a wide range of events including: the 99th CFL Grey Cup Championship, 2012 CONCACAF Women's Olympic Qualifying Soccer Tournament, CIS Vanier Cup, BC High School Football Championship, Monster Jam, the 50th Annual Vancouver International Boat Show, BC Home and Garden Show, PlayDome, Vancouver International Auto Show, The Vancouver Sun Run, EAT! Vancouver Food and Cooking Festival, Roger Waters’ THE WALL Live, a free Community Open House, and more.
