Fans will flood in via “The Last Mile,” packed with security, while the stadium’s $200M upgrade shines: a custom grass pitch bathed in UV light, climate-controlled irrigation, and a roof that opens for sun but shuts for broadcast perfection. Locker rooms, video boards, and VIP zones all got TLC, even Canada’s team got a sneak peek. But the real stakes? Vancouver’s hosting tab just ballooned to $685M–$729M for seven matches—and Saturday’s Australia vs. Türkiye clash, drawing 130M global viewers, is the ultimate test.
