Both Rogers Arena and Abbotsford Centre are holding Vancouver Canucks Stanley Cup Playoffs viewing parties, with tickets required.
But the arenas aren’t the only venues hosting watch parties, as many municipalities around the Lower Mainland are also getting in on the fun and hosting free viewing community viewing parties.
Abbotsford Centre
Abbotsford Centre announced May 11 it will be hosting watch parties for the playoff games with a live feed on the video board. The venue says tickets all watch events are available at Ticketmaster.
Tickets for Abbotsford watch parties can be found on Ticketmaster.
Rogers Arena
Rogers Arena hosted viewing parties for away games throughout the second series, with a live feed on the video board. No word yet if there will be viewing parties at the arena should the Canucks move on to the third series.
City of Vancouver
The City of Vancouver hadn’t originally planned on hosting watch parties, but this has changed since the team made it to Round 2 of the playoffs. For up to date listings on these watch parties, visit the City of Vancouver website.
A watch party for Game 7 May 20 has been confirmed. The location will be Oak Meadows Park, the same site of past watch parties.
As well, there will be viewing parties at the Langara Golf Course Clubhouse, the Fraserview Golf Course Clubhouse, which will be licenced events.
Another event will be held at Kerrisdale Community Centre, but this will be alcohol free.
In the past, there were also viewing spaces at Roundhouse, Killarney, Kitsilano, False Creek, Creekside, and Kerrisdale Community Centres.
Puck drop is at 6 p.m.
Alcohol is not permitted at the events, but dogs are welcome if they are well-behaved, leashed, and licensed.
City of Delta
The City of Delta was the first municipality to announce it was hosting game viewing parties. The family-friendly events have been taking place at Social Heart Plaza at 11415 84 Avenue.
City of Port Coquitlam
The City of Port Coquitlam has been hosting viewing parties at Port Coquitlam Community Centre at 2150 Wilson Avenue. PoCo Mayor Brad West says city Hall will be lit up in Canucks colours during games.

An event for Game 2 was held at the Anvil Centre.
City of North Vancouver
The City of North Vancouver hosted a free family viewing party Friday for Game 2 at the Shipyards at 125 Victory Ship Way. The game was aired on a 16-foot LED screen in the Shipyards Commons.
However, there is no viewing party at the Shipyards for Game 6 on May 18, and no word yet on if there will be one for Game 7 May 20.
City of Burnaby
The City of Burnaby hosted a viewing party at Rosemary Brown Recreation Centre for Game 1, and plans to continue with the events for each game of the series. The centre, located at 7789 18th Street, will be showing the games on large-format screens on the second floor.
