Vancouver’s iconic stadium to host men’s and women’s 10-over cricket tournaments in a landmark move for the sport in North America
Vancouver, Canada – August 1, 2025: In a defining moment for cricket in North America, Canada Super 60 has officially announced BC Place in Vancouver as the host venue for the inaugural edition of its men’s and women’s tournaments. This milestone positions Canada on the global cricket map and brings one of the world’s most innovative cricket formats to one of the nation’s most prestigious sporting venues.
Located in the heart of downtown Vancouver, BC Place is renowned for hosting world-class events, including the 2010 Olympic Winter Games ceremonies, FIFA Women’s World Cup 2015, and the upcoming FIFA World Cup 2026. With a retractable roof and state-of-the-art facilities, the stadium is now set to become the first indoor venue globally to host a professional 10-over-a-side cricket league, promising a year-round cricket experience regardless of weather conditions.
“This stadium isn’t just a sporting venue — it’s a theatre of dreams,” said Yuvraj Singh, global cricket icon and strategic partner of Canada Super 60. “There’s no better place to begin this journey. Vancouver is a city built on diversity and culture, and cricket on the West Coast is going to inspire an entirely new generation of fans.”
The Canada Super 60 stands out as the first global-format cricket league to launch with both men’s and women’s tournaments from day one, reinforcing its mission to promote inclusivity, innovation, and international-level competition. With its fast-paced 10-over format, the league is designed to attract new audiences while providing a platform for Canadian and international talent to shine.
“This partnership with BC Place signals our deep commitment to growing cricket across the country,” said Amjad Bajwa, President of Cricket Canada. “The Canada Super 60 will not only elevate the sport domestically but also align with our broader ambitions as we look ahead to hosting the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in 2026.”
Chris May, General Manager of BC Place, echoed the excitement: “We are proud to welcome cricket to our stadium. Hosting the Canada Super 60 is more than a sporting event — it’s a cultural celebration. It reflects the diversity of British Columbia and our drive to offer inclusive, dynamic events that engage the broader community.”
Tournament dates and ticketing details will be announced soon, with the Canada Super 60 poised to deliver a high-impact, fan-first cricket experience in one of the world’s most scenic and multicultural cities.
