Vancouver 2010 Olympics Victory Ceremony Performers List

Although I still think the Whistler nightly awards ceremony performers is a helluva a lot better than Vancouver’s, I was reminded by a buddy of mine that we also have two live sites (Yaletown and Downtown), which are FREE (c’mon DeadMau5 in Yaletown!) and then there is the Cultural Olympiad. So all in all we got a lot of stuff to keep us entertained.

Tickets are on sale now at www.vancouver2010.com and by phone at 1-800-TICKETS, as well as Main Ticket Centres in Vancouver at Robson Square and in Whistler near Whistler Medals Plaza. Regular tickets cost $22, while premium tickets ― the first time VANOC has offered this designation ― are available for $50. The premium ticketed seats are centre stage, with an incredible view of the medal ceremonies and performances. Visa is the only payment card accepted. Cash is accepted ONLY at the Main Ticket Centres.
