Canada Place is a national icon and there are lots of activities to do there. You can stroll the scenic Canada Place pier or watch the large cruise ships head out to sea. Sometimes conventions are held at Canada Place and it is also a good place for enjoying a luxurious weekend getaway experience.

Your first spot to visit at the Canada Place is the Welcome Centre in the Main Plaza, here you can ask and find out about the attractions at Canada Place and what events are currently happening. Also view the Storyboard for beautiful imagery and videos of Canada as a country. Walk towards the Canada Place Pier and enjoy the amazing views of Coal Harbour, North Shore mountains, Stanley Park, and Burrard Inlet.

Walk through the Canadian Trail which takes you through (virtually tour) ten provinces and three territories, starting from British Columbia to Newfoundland to the Northwest Territories. At night time you can also enjoy the view of Canada Place’s sails light up in a fantastic display of animated imagery called “The Sails of Light”.
