thePodcast: PNE Fair begins new era with amphitheatre

The 116th PNE Fair, with the Freedom Mobile Arch at centre stage.

theBreaker interrupts the flood of headlines about tariffs, wars, wildfires and all manner of political and corporate shenanigans to bring you sights and sounds from the 116th PNE Fair in Vancouver.

B.C.’s biggest late-summer tradition at Hastings Park is on through Labour Day and features the new, $183 million Freedom Mobile Arch.

On opening day of the 10,000-seat concert venue in June, Bob Mackin interviewed the CEO of its naming sponsor, Pierre Karl Peladeau, about trends in the world of telecom, media and sports and entertainment.
