Beautiful Seats
In British Columbia, the best seats come with ocean breezes and mountain views.
The matches may be the main event during FIFA World Cup 26™ in BC Place Vancouver, but some of the best seats are beyond the stadium—where mountains rise and oceans meet the horizon.
When the action pauses, dive into the energy of Vancouver, or travel across British Columbia to explore coasts, skies, and peaks shaped by nature. Adventure isn’t confined to the pitch—it stretches as far as you’re willing to go.
Beyond the Match: The Wild Awaits
The City will roar to life in 2026 as FIFA World Cup 26™ matches light up BC Place Vancouver Stadium—but beyond the pitch, British Columbia offers an equally thrilling point of view. Out here, the best seats are found on windswept ridges, along rocky shorelines, and beneath the quiet hush of old-growth trees.
