After Brampton in Ontario, BC Place in Vancouver is set to become the new home of Canadian and international cricket, featuring the latest version of the sport, T10. An official announcement said that BC Place would be the official venue for the inaugural Canada Super 60.
It is a landmark moment for cricket in Canada as the game finds a new home on the West Coast. On the East Coast, Brampton has already taken the lead by formally launching its second successive cricket ground a couple of weeks ago. To justify its claim as the emerging cricket capital of Canada, Brampton has been hosting GT20 cricket tournaments featuring the world’s elite cricketers for the last few years.
Now, Vancouver has emerged on the scene, on the western coast of the country, with a lead—T10 championships, both for men and women, at a venue that needs no introduction in the world of competitive sports.
It is a significant leap for cricket in North America with the announcement of the Canada Super 60 at the iconic BC Place as the official venue for the first-ever edition of its men’s and women’s tournaments.
This announcement marks a historic milestone for the Canada Super 60—securing one of the most prestigious and state-of-the-art stadiums in the country as its launchpad. BC Place, located in the heart of downtown Vancouver, is more than a stadium—it is a symbol of Canadian sporting heritage and home to some of the most marquee global events, including the upcoming FIFA World Cup 26.
Over the past four decades, BC Place has hosted numerous global sporting events, including the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2015, the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, and ten Grey Cup Championships. With its retractable roof, world-class infrastructure, and multi-sport versatility, BC Place will now transform into an all-weather cricket stadium, becoming the first indoor venue in the world to host a 10-over-a-side cricket tournament.
“BC Place is not just a stadium; it is a theatre of dreams,” said Yuvraj Singh, global cricket icon and strategic partner of Canada Super 60. “As a sportsperson, you are deeply inspired by the grandeur of where you play—and for our players, men and women alike, there couldn’t be a better venue to start this journey. Vancouver is a city that thrives on nature, diversity, and culture—and cricket on the West Coast is going to ignite a whole new fan base.”
The Canada Super 60 is the first global-format cricket league to feature both men’s and women’s 10-over-a-side tournaments from inception, aiming to redefine competitive cricket in Canada and create a blueprint for the sport’s growth in North America.
“We feel incredibly proud to introduce BC Place to the world of cricket,” said Cricket Canada official Amjad Bajwa, president of Cricket Canada. “We wholeheartedly congratulate the Super 60 team on making this possible. This partnership is a clear signal of our commitment to expanding cricket across the country and creating world-class opportunities for Canadian players, especially as we look ahead to the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in 2026.”
“We are beyond excited to welcome cricket to BC Place,” said Chris May, General Manager of BC Place. “Hosting the Canada Super 60 is a tremendous opportunity to showcase the world’s second-most-watched sport right here in our beautiful city. As a multi-sport and multi-purpose venue, we are always looking for new and dynamic events that reflect the diversity of our province. This is a meaningful step towards creating a more inclusive and representative sports landscape in British Columbia.”
The official tournament dates for the Canada Super 60 will be announced shortly. With cricket being one of the fastest-growing sports in North America, the event promises not only thrilling matches but also a transformational cultural and sporting experience in Vancouver.
The 2028 Summer Olympic Games in Los Angeles will see the return of cricket to the world’s biggest sporting bonanza.
Interestingly, both the USA and Canada have qualified for the next T20 Cricket World Cup Championship, as both nations gave an excellent account of themselves in the last T20 World Cup held jointly by the US and the West Indies.
The US had surprised Pakistan in the last edition of the T20 World Cup. US Cricket has also announced a prolific program to take the game to millions of schoolchildren in time for the 2028 Olympic Games.
Canada Super 60 is a groundbreaking new cricket league launching in 2025, introducing the unique 10-over-a-side format with both men’s and women’s competitions from its inaugural season—a global first.
Backed by Cricket Canada, the league aims to elevate Canada’s place on the world cricket map while offering fans a thrilling mix of power and strategy between T20s and ODIs. The tournament will be hosted at the iconic BC Place Stadium in Vancouver, making it the first major cricket league to debut on Canada’s West Coast.
The Canada Super 60 is more than just a tournament—it’s a celebration of sport, diversity, and opportunity, designed to grow the game in North America and give Canadian players global exposure.
As the largest multipurpose venue of its kind in Western Canada, BC Place provides a spectacular home for international, professional, and amateur sports; entertainment; commerce; cultural experiences; and community gatherings for the benefit of all British Columbians.
BC Place is a part of BC Pavilion Corporation (PavCo), a provincial Crown corporation of the Ministry of Tourism, Arts, Culture & Sport that owns and operates the Vancouver Convention Centre and BC Place.
