BOOOOM!!!

Have you watched a Vancouver Whitecaps FC match at the newly renovated BC Place? If not, it’s about time you did.

With the arrival of Major League Soccer (MLS) to Vancouver in 2011, the city has re-emerged as a soccer hotbed – and excitement is reaching fever pitch now that Whitecaps FC are sitting in a playoff position. As captain Jay Demerit leads the team toward a strong second half against some tough Western Conference opponents, world-class players like Young-Pyo Lee, accomplished midfielders like Barry Robson and talented young strikers like Darren Mattocks are helping to push the “Blue and White” towards their first MLS Cup playoff berth. Watching a ‘Caps game is like experiencing authentic European football in downtown Vancouver – and it presents the perfect excuse to engage in rousing post-match festivities at one of the team’s pub partners.

Single tickets start at $20, but Vancouver Whitecaps FC is inviting organizations, staff, family and friends to gather a group of 20+, choose a match and save up to $11 or $39 per ticket (depending on seat location) – and you’ll walk away with a scarf and complimentary tickets, too.
