BC Place lights up for International Youth Day

August 12th, 2020

BC Place will light up blue, yellow and red to recognize International Youth Day on Wednesday, August 12th.

International Youth Day is an annual initiative that gives an opportunity to celebrate and mainstream young peoples’ voices, actions and initiatives, as well as their meaningful, universal and equitable engagement.

The theme of International Youth Day 2020, “Youth Engagement for Global Action” seeks to highlight the ways in which the engagement of young people at the local, national and global levels is enriching national and multilateral institutions and processes, as well as draw lessons on how their representation and engagement in formal institutional politics can be significantly enhanced.
