Vancouver's World Cup Legacy

Seven matches, 25 days, approximately 381,500 stadium tickets — Vancouver delivered one of the most celebrated World Cup 2026 venues. The FIFA Fan Festival at Hastings Park drew additional crowds beyond stadium capacity. Canada's historic first-ever knockout-stage appearance on home soil (Jun 18 vs Qatar, Jun 24 vs Switzerland) was the emotional centrepiece of the city's tournament.

Switzerland used BC Place almost as a home ground — three of their World Cup 2026 matches were played here, ending with their penalty shootout win over Colombia in the Round of 16 on July 7.
