Canucks Sports & Entertainment in partnership with HMSHost announced yesterday the grand opening of the Vancouver Canucks Sports Bar & Grill at Vancouver International Airport (YVR).
The 4,000 square foot full-service restaurant features distinctive Canucks décor, memorabilia and an assortment of authentic team merchandise for sale.
Designed to recreate a club level experience at Rogers Arena, the Vancouver Canucks Sports Bar & Grill connects guests to the excitement and action of a Canucks game. In partnership with global restaurateur HMSHost, a world leader in airport dining, the restaurant is committed to delivering premium guest experiences and providing meaningful first and last impressions to visitors of British Columbia.
“YVR is a world-class airport, distinctly representing British Columbia,” said Michael Doyle, Canucks Sports & Entertainment Executive Vice President & Arena General Manager. “We are very happy to be a part of the YVR family and have the opportunity to showcase our passion for hockey in our community. The Vancouver Canucks Sports Bar &Grill and HMSHost are committed to providing exceptional customer service and a true fan experience with every visit.”
“HMSHost looks forward to welcoming Vancouver travellers and fans to a unique dining experience that centres on the love of hockey,” said HMSHost Vice President of Business Development Renee Tedesco. “Guests will feel as if they’re right in the VIP suite of a Canucks game.”
“We are pleased that Canucks Sports and Entertainment is partnering with HMSHost to open the new Vancouver Canucks Sports Bar & Grill here at YVR,” said Tony Gugliotta, Senior Vice President, Marketing and Business Development, Vancouver Airport Authority. “The Vancouver Canucks are British Columbia’s premier sports team and we are thrilled to welcome them to YVR. We also congratulate HMSHost on continuing to provide first-class dining options to our passengers.”
Defenceman Jason Garrison alongside Canucks executives joined representatives from HMSHost and Vancouver Airport Authority at a ribbon-cutting launch of the Vancouver Canucks Sports Bar & Grill today.
Open daily from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., which seems odd for being a sports bar located in the Pacific time zone, especially since flights are scheduled all day and night.
More information on the bar & grill is available in the Shopping & Dining pages of YVR.CA.
