What would a trip to Canada be without a hockey game? The NHL's Vancouver Canucks play at GM Place, a large venue in the center of Vancouver. Like any Canadian hockey game, tickets sell out very quickly early in the season. Get your tickets well in advance to see Canada's favorite pastime.
Also popular in Canada is football. The British Columbia Lions, Canadian Football League champions in 2000, are a must-see at 60,000-seat BC Place. The season runs from June to November and ends with the Grey Cup Championship.
The Edgewater Casino is close to GM Place in downtown Vancouver. With slot machines, craps and poker, this 30,000-square-foot venue is the ultimate in gambling. Visit the Edgewater before dining at one of Vancouver's many restaurants or attending an event at GM Place. Catering to everyone's schedule, this casino is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Closer to the edge of town off Fraser Highway, the Cascades Casino is a slighter smaller casino at 25,000 square feet, but features all one would expect. From blackjack to poker, this casino caters to all gamblers. The complex even has a giant theater, bar and restaurant for those looking for an alternative to the craps tables.
