What is Vancouver Sevens?
Three days of world-class rugby, paired with the best costume party you've ever seen! This weekend is forecast for rugby with a high chance of a party. After years of success in Vancouver, this has become an iconic tradition, and this is surely Your Year. Still not convinced? Here are Seven reasons why you should be coming to Vancouver Sevens:
1. It's the best party in town, with an electric atmosphere that you have to experience for yourself!
2. The best teams in the world all under one roof at BC Place. Will returning champions like Argentina and New Zealand top the podium, or will we see an underdog take the number one spot?
3. Canada's own women's Olympic rugby silver medallists on home soil. Cheer on our Olympic medal-winning squad right here in Vancouver!
4. The globally renowned costume party. The fancy dress tradition turns a weekend in February into Halloween like you've never seen it before.
5. Three full days of world class sport in your backyard. The three-day pass gives you access to the entire tournament, so you can follow your favourite teams from first kick-off on Friday all the way through to Sunday's grand finale. Sports!
6. This is the longest running annual sports event of this size and scale in Vancouver. Come see what the fuss is all about!
7. There's something for everyone. Want to introduce your little ones to rugby? Stay tuned for more on opportunities for them to get on the pitch at BC Place!
It was fun to watch. But I think it was too long due to mixing the women's games with the men. This made the day too long and I wasted most my time walking around because I didn't want to watch the boring women's matches. Make men's and women's games on seperate days.
Super fun weekend at BC Place. Drinks very expensive $22.50 before tip for 1 pint of beer!
I go to the rugby 7’s every year, great event, Rugby is awesome, people watching is fun too with everyone dressing up. Concession is ridiculously expensive. $17.50 for the cheapest pint of beer, and most of the beer I drank was flat or off aswell. If you are there for just the rugby, and don’t want to eat or drink anything, it’s perfect.
What an exciting weekend of great matches. Best tournament I’ve been to and I’ve watched a lot sports in my life. Been going a couple years now and won’t miss Vancouver rugby sevens for nothing. Love how everyone throws on their costumes and get to view international sports on such a high level.
I was there solo on Friday and with my 4 grandsons on Sunday. We all enjoyed the 7s circus. It was all action all the time which may have held the attention of rugby neophytes but sometimes got in the way of focusing on the matches for long-time players, referees, and fans (e.g, me). Imo the music should have been cut off 10 seconds before every kick-off and conversion attempt to allow the players and referees to concentrate on the match. That it usually continued until the ball was in the air at kick-offs was carnival stuff, not rugby. I appreciated the concise announcements of scorers and scores but the description of missed conversions as "no good"was crass and insulting. This was only the second time I have attended the 7s. The first was in 2016 on Vancouver's debut in the list of venues. Imo the overall standard of rugby was better in 2016, but for mass entertainment value 2024 won out.
Awesome vibes and great entertainment. I sure hope World Rugby awards Vance four more years!
Games were incredible to watch. Didn't know what to expect, and family and i had a great time.
Very Good BUT It was a MAJOR MISTAKE mixing the women's 7's in with the men's. SORRY - this sounds harsh but TRUE. I have been going to the 7's for the past 10 years globally and this is the 1st time the women's games have been mixed into the men's. Too disruptive! As good as the women are and they are, it is much BETTER to watch the men's tournament straight through as opposed to men / women / men / women. It is a fact - the men are better at the game. Politically incorrect I know but TRUE - SO keep them separate! If you do this again I will go to another city / country to watch them! Thanks for asking & listening.
THE EVENT WAS GREAT. I HAVE BRUISES BECAUSE THERE IS NOT ENOUGH LEG ROOM WHEN SITTING. I TOOK A STAR OFF FOR THAT
Absolutely loved this event. I have never watched rugby live previous to this but what an amazing way to experience it. Would highly recommend to anyone!
Very entertaining and full of rugby 7s excitement. Day spent well with my kids. We had lots and lots of fun. Can't wait to see all the nation's again at BC place Stadium next year🤗♥️
Everything was quick and simple, from the entrance, to finding our seats. The selection of food and drinks was phenomenal. The venue was a little cold...
There’s nothing better than rugby sevens! Always a great time.
Good stadium, good atmosphere but to pay over $20 for a pint of below average beer is the biggest scam of them all, should be ashamed to even ask that much for a beer.
As someone who’s never followed Rugby I wasn’t sure if I would enjoy it but from the moment we walked in at 9am until the final game my whole family was hooked and the atmosphere was amazing!
Enjoyed the energetic matches between teams from far flung corners of the globe. Appreciated both women’s and men’s games. Loved the costumes, food, and atmosphere.
It was my first time and I absolutely loved it! The costumes, the energy, the teams it was a great way to spend the day/night with family and friends. I did wish there was a commentary while the game is on, it’ll get us to be more engaged more and know the players names from other countries. I can’t wait to go again next year!
Need more food stalls. Variety of foods are needed. Different countries and cultures have different tastes too.
The rugby was amazing, the cost to get in was reasonable; however the food, beer and parking are incredibly expensive. Will have second thoughts about attending in the future due these side expenses.
Love the rugby sevens! So much fun, the sport is always entertaining and the crowd even more so. The thing that keeps me to just attending one day though is the ludicrous beer prices. $22 for a full size beer, then they prompt you to tip! That is the most ridiculous upcharge I have ever seen! Next year I think I might just watch it for free at home and crack a cold one on my couch.
