We Can Fix Your Roots. We Can’t Fix Traffic. Leave Early.
Vancouver is hosting several FIFA World Cup 2026 matches at BC Place, and while we are incredibly excited to be part of the energy and excitement happening downtown, we also want to help our guests plan ahead for a smooth salon visit.
During the tournament, there will be increased traffic, road closures, parking changes, and transit delays throughout the downtown core — especially on match days.
Please allow extra travel time for your appointment.
Vancouver will host FIFA matches on the following dates:
Saturday, June 13
Thursday, June 18
Sunday, June 21
Wednesday, June 24
Friday, June 26
Thursday, July 2
Tuesday, July 7
During the FIFA tournament period:
Temporary road closures and “local traffic only” zones will be in effect around BC Place and False Creek
Pacific Boulevard near BC Place will have extended closures
Some Cambie Bridge access points may be restricted
Granville Street will become a pedestrian-only zone between Georgia and Davie
Parking may be limited and more difficult to access
Transit will be busier than usual throughout downtown Vancouver
Rideshare and taxi access may be slower around match times
The city is encouraging visitors to walk, bike, or take transit whenever possible.
Our Recommendation for Clients
To help make your visit as stress-free as possible:
Arrive early whenever possible
Allow extra time for parking and traffic
Consider taking SkyTrain or transit downtown
Check road closures before leaving for your appointment
Expect heavier congestion several hours before and after matches
If you are running late due to FIFA-related traffic delays, please call us as soon as possible and we will do our best to accommodate you.
