A special celebration with live music, food, and events, is being planned for the BC Lions’ game in Victoria this summer — and tickets for the game will go on sale next week.
Touchdown Pacific will feature the BC Lions hosting the Ottawa Redblacks on Saturday, August 31 at Royal Athletic Park — which will transform into a full-on football field with a capacity for 14,000 fans.
The game will kick off the BC Lions’ 70th season in the Canadian Football League.
Preceding the game, a two-day festival is planned for August 29 and 30 at Ship Point in the inner harbour, featuring live music, food, and family-friendly activities.
Community engagement will be a focal point, with BC Lions’ players and coaches participating in various activities, including open practices and football clinics.
