This is a 3.5 stars not 4. Full disclosure I went to an Ed Sheeran concert not a sports event. I am sure this is very different experience a sports event. There is alot to love about this stadium and some prep you need to understand and prepare yourself for. I love the location. There are lots of parking spaces to make this location a simple park and walk. Lots of high quality and cheap or expensive places to eat and hotels if you want to make it a weekend affair. Getting in looked horrific as I walked towards the stadium so I walked to the side and their was no queue. The selection of food wasn't bad and some of the food looked very tasty, and people seemed to be smiling while eating. I loved the cute and handy local beverage stands which seemed to be handled very quickly. The seats were comfortable, the views were great and the sound was better than Lumen field (due to the lack of metal). It is a smaller stadium than Lumen field in Seattle and Ed Sheeran had 65,000 attend which was a record. The stadium has a roof which does twinkle (very cute) which is great but it meant the fireworks used in the concert were substantial reduced in height and effect. The merch lines were the worst I had seen in a long long time as was the management of those lines and the construction of the lines. (So bad they ended up with 5 security people managing our line as people walked through the door and straight into the merch line not realizing it was 150metres snake on the otherside, as the snake wasn't allowed to block the entrance. 45 mins to get a tee and I think that line was one of the smallest). Also the queue to the ladies (restrooms) was horrific, longer than the merch lines in some cases. So remember ladies and mums this stadium was design with 95% of the audience being men so when an audience is over 50% female, things start to break. So go before you get in and go early and/or don't drink alot before the main show starts and unless you need a bespoke Vancouver shirt in a medium don't buy merch as you walk in leave it and wait until 30mins before the main act of the concert when the lines are empty. Leaving the stadium was very easy and quick and the traffic to get on the 99 was really easy and lite.

I have always enjoyed Whitecaps games. They have great food. They have affordable tickets. If you’re not a soccer person, come to one of these games, and it will change your experience forever. Watching up close live is amazing. If the weather is nice they even open up the dome. The big screen is wonderful. It helps you navigate to see what’s going on farther on the other side of the field. Definitely take advantage of the 50/50 draw. 50% of the proceeds go to charity and the rest for a raffle to win the other amount. The food concessions have a wide variety of food and drinks. You can never go wrong with the messy hotdogs and nachos. They are so delicious. Just make sure you get extra napkins and a fork. It’s great family friendly entertainment. Perfect for a group night out. I’m surprised after all these years I’ve never written a review. Our last boys night out we had a great night, even though we lost against Minnesota. Never had front row seats ever and let me tell ya, incredible view. It was so exciting to sit right at the front. I highly recommend everyone to sit up front at least once in their lifetime. Key things to remember. If you don’t like lineups exiting the arena, leave a few minutes earlier.

Was here for the Supercross races. The venue has everything you need, except knowledgeable staff. We had two people with our party with disabilities. One on crutches, who was in a great deal of pain and one with a cane. Both unable to ambulate easily. The seats on the map were chosen for their ease and closeness to the front doors. However, the map on the site was upside down! Our party had to walk the entire distance to the opposite side of the building, not to mention that not one staff member suggested the elevator to get down to the floor we were headed to. Instead, we had to walk down a long ramp. No carts or wheelchairs were available to help either of our party. If there were, nobody suggested it. When we left, we asked for an easier route back to the front. A staff member suggested the elevator, and when we did get into the elevator, the staff member pushed the button (ummmm, every one of us could push an elevator button button. Thank you. Wth?) didn't have a clue how to get us to the right floor or to the other side of the building. We tried every floor and ended up just getting out and asking someone at the exit, but they didn't know how to get us to the right floor either. By then, the person in our party on crutches was so sore and tired we just exited, and the two of them caught a cab to the hotel despite it being literally a block from the front of the building. What a mess! Despite the mess, the event was epic and fun. However, the announcers were so loud, and it echoed so badly that it distorted their voices, and we could not understand a word they were saying. Seats were at least somewhat padded, The aisles where you sit were so tight to the row in front of you that even when we stood up to allow other event goers to pass to the stairs, you were rubbed up against as they passed. You have to precariously balance as you're pressed up against your seat as people go by. This stadium was built to squish as many people as possible into the space as uncomfortably as possible. Not fun. I will avoid going to any event here in the future.

Went to the Elton John concert and unfortunately it isn’t built well for concerts. Elton John himself was AMAZING!! However, until you get there they don’t inform you that you can’t have larger purses and you had to leave them outside under a tent on the street for $10 where it was a “leave it at your own risk” as they weren’t responsible if someone stole it. Luckily we were only a 20 minute walk away from our hotel and had initially left early that we just dropped our purses off instead. The security was quick and nice and we got inside easily after getting back. The prices for food and drinks were expensive though. Lastly the sound was a bit off when Elton John was playing and sometimes it was difficult hearing what he was singing (only reason I knew what was said is because I know the lyrics really well) and unfortunately they had 3 sound pillars that got in the way of the screens, which were critical to showing Elton John and his videos. Overall it was a good experience, with Elton John making it amazing. Please add that you can’t bring bags into the place on the tickets or send a separate email because I felt bad for people who couldn’t just drop them off somewhere safe.

My first time going here, we went to see Coldplay. They were fantastic, btw. Being my first time, some of it was confusing. A staff member outside told me to go to a shorter line, and I would get in faster, which I did. Once inside, a security worker, two lovely middle-aged females, told me some advice about how to fold up a poster and to grab a drink cover and where to sit. Overall, it was a great experience. However, they sell drinks outside of the arena and let people come back with them. Paying $600 for tickets, I want it to be a memorable experience. The people next to me unfortunately didn't know their limit and kept buying booze. They were rambling on and on, loud, and smelled terrible. It was an all ages show, so I figured they wouldn't be selling alcohol, being sober, I really wish this wasn't an option. The seats are VERY cramped and close together, so once we all started to stand up, the number of times I had my stuff knocked over / space intruded on by a flailing drunk woman were to great to count. My experience would have been better if these people couldn't have any drinks.
