The House on Hastings Park
The Pacific National Exhibition owns the East Vancouver site it books on. As a promoter it works two rooms there: the PNE Forum, a flat-floor hall that flexes between general-admission shows and seated dates, and the Pacific Coliseum, the arena that has hosted touring acts since the 1960s. The summer Fair concert series adds a run of headliners staged with the midway and the Ferris wheel in the background, putting the PNE's name across a wide slice of the calendar.
What That Means for Coverage
The two rooms shoot differently. The Forum is a large open box, so light and sightlines depend on the touring production. The Coliseum is an arena, which usually means standard touring-grade terms and a pit that may sit off the rail. The Fair shows run in an outdoor or festival-stage setting, with daylight load-ins and a crowd that wandered over from the midway rather than lining up at a club door.
Submitting
Access goes by email. Write ahead with the artist and show date, and state whether the show is a Fair date or a stand-alone booking in one of the halls, since the two run on different timelines. Lead with your outlet and a few recent samples; a request that is easy to triage is answered faster.
