Set between the Pacific Ocean and the Coast Mountains, Vancouver is arguably one of the most scenic host cities at this year's FIFA World Cup.

Canada's west coast metropolis will welcome fans from around the world for seven matches at BC Place, including two involving the Canadian team.

Beyond football, visitors can expect spectacular natural scenery, a multicultural food scene, easy access to beaches and mountains, and one of North America's most walkable urban centres.

World Cup fixtures in Vancouver

Seven World Cup matches will be hosted at BC Place, the city's retractable-roof stadium in downtown Vancouver, including five group-stage fixtures and two knockout-round matches.
