Getting here
Driving in downtown Vancouver is a pain, and for parking, they almost ask for your firstborn child. If you’re flying into the airport, the fastest and most convenient way to get downtown is by rapid transit on the Canada Line.
- Follow the signs in the airport to CANADA LINE. Board any train — they all go to the same place.
- Disembark at the terminus station, Waterfront Station
- Exit Waterfront Station on Cordova and turn right (west)
- Take your next right at Howe and you’ll be walking towards the water. You’ll see Canada Place — the white building with all the sails. You want Vancouver Convention Centre at 1055 Canada Place — a little farther west along the water.
