Downtown play-and-stay destination Parq Vancouver is showing the pride and announcing a new partnership with the BC Lions as the Official Casino Resort of the hometown team as it kicks off its 2024 Canadian Football League (CFL) season.
Located just a short walk from the Lions’ den for home games at BC Place Stadium, Parq Vancouver is perfectly positioned to provide fans with world-class food, drink and entertainment experiences for all BC Lions games throughout the season.
As Official Casino Resort, Parq will help gridiron fans show their love for the Leos with a roster of fantastic game-day features that include Game-Day Watch Parties in BC Kitchen located on the second floor of Parq Casino for all home and away games as well as post-game meet-and-greet sessions with various BC Lions players following select home games this season.
Parq Casino will also show its pride and set up a tent on game days in Terry Fox Plaza on the Level 2 concourse outside BC Place Stadium where passersby can spin a wheel and win prizes like free plays, food discounts, swag and more to be redeemed at Parq Casino and its participating restaurants.
Throughout the season, the Parq Centre Bar will also offer game-day Happy Hour features from 2:30 to 8:30 p.m. that include six-dollar sleeves of Molson Canadian, glasses of featured wine and well highballs.
