Vancouver's Pacific National Exhibition Amphitheatre to feature a precedent-setting mass timber roof

Situated in Hastings Park, Vancouver, the Pacific National Exhibition (PNE) Amphitheatre by Revery Architecture  and engineers Fast + Epp envisions a covered, open-air theatre venue with a capacity of approximately 10,0000 beneath a precedent-setting starburst mass timber roof. Designed to span more than 340 feet (104 m), the roof will be one of the world's largest free-span timber roof structures upon completion.

太平洋国家展览馆(PNE)露天剧场位于温哥华黑斯廷斯公园,由 Revery Architecture 建筑事务所和 Fast + Epp 工程师共同设计,是一个有顶棚的露天剧场,可容纳约 10,000 人,屋顶采用开创先例的星形大块木结构。屋顶设计跨度超过 340 英尺(104 米),建成后将成为世界上最大的自由跨度木屋顶结构之一。

The structure includes 60 arches arranged in 6-barrel vaulted segments intersecting at diagonal planes, forming 80-foot-high (24-meter-high) arcs that frame views toward Vancouver's North Shore Mountains. At the same time, the footings touch down into the landscape at three points, resulting in an intimate atmosphere under the warm wood ceiling. 

该建筑包括 60 个拱门,以 6 桶拱顶的形式排列,在对角线平面上相交,形成 80 英尺高(24 米高)的弧形,将温哥华北岸山脉的美景尽收眼底。同时,基脚有三处触及景观,在温暖的木质天花板下营造出亲切的氛围。

The PNE Amphitheatre is equipped with a flexible, state-of-the-art infrastructure. It features a permanent stage and a three-storey back-of-house building. The venue is also outfitted with custom house lighting, rigging, and sound equipment, all of which are designed to lower the cost of staging events. This affordability makes the venue accessible for a variety of uses, including those by community groups and non-profit organizations. 

PNE 圆形剧场配备了灵活、先进的基础设施。它拥有一个永久性舞台和一座三层楼高的后场建筑。场馆还配备了定制的室内灯光、索具和音响设备,所有这些都是为了降低举办活动的成本而设计的。由于价格低廉,该场地可用于各种用途,包括社区团体和非营利组织的活动。

The flexible seating concept includes removable seating in the lower area to accommodate standing-room-only events. Fixed mid-tier seating is elevated to achieve optimal sightlines, ensuring each audience member has a clear view of the stage.  Additional lawn seating provides overflow capacity, allowing people to take in more informal viewing while enjoying the site's natural setting. 

灵活的座位设计理念包括低层区域的可移动座位,以满足仅有站立座位的活动需求。固定的中层座位被抬高,以达到最佳视线,确保每位观众都能清晰地看到舞台。 额外的草坪座位可容纳更多观众,让人们在享受场地自然环境的同时,还能以更随意的方式欣赏演出。

The Pacific National Exhibition welcomes 3+ million guests annually. It hosts the iconic PNE Fair and Playland amusement park, as well as various high-profile concerts, festivals, and community events. This world-class open-air venue will provide much-needed mixed-used space in support of these PNE programs.

"The PNE Amphitheatre is an important economic and cultural stimulus project that meets the identified critical void of a lack of performance space in Vancouver,"  says Councillor Sarah Kirby-Yung (Chair, PNE-Hastings Park Board of Director).


太平洋国家展览馆每年接待 300 多万游客。这里举办标志性的 "太平洋国家博览会"(PNE Fair)和 "游乐场"(Playland)游乐园,以及各种高知名度的音乐会、节日和社区活动。这个世界一流的露天场馆将提供急需的混合用途空间,以支持 PNE 的这些项目。

"PNE露天剧场是一个重要的经济和文化刺激项目,它满足了温哥华缺乏表演场地的关键需求,"市议员Sarah Kirby-Yung(PNE-Hastings公园董事会主席)说。
