The BC Government has given approval to the B.C. Pavilion Corporation (PavCo) to issue a request for proposals (RFP) to select a naming rights sponsor for BC Place Stadium.
The addition of a naming rights sponsor is an opportunity for PavCo to attract private investment to offset costs related to the facility's operations.
Lisa Beare, Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture says now is an excellent time to look for the right corporate partner for this important facility in B.C.
BC Place provides a venue for sport, entertainment, commerce, cultural and community activity. More than one million people attend events at BC Place annually, including games of the stadium's two resident teams, the BC Lions Football Club of the Canadian Football League and Vancouver Whitecaps FC of Major League Soccer.
