WHISTLER CELEBRATES OLYMPIC ANNIVERSARY
Whistler is celebrating the 10th anniversary of hosting the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.
Since hosting the bobsleigh, luge, and skeleton events, the Whistler Sliding Centre remains an active training and competition site, while also offering a number of Olympic experiences for guests such as the thrill of sliding in a passenger bobsleigh or the adrenaline rush of a solo skeleton ride. Over at Whistler Olympic Park, the site of the ski jumping, biathlon, cross-country skiing, and Nordic combined events during the Games, guests can discover the original Nordic trails and experience the biathlon shooting range just as the 2010 athletes did.
Within Whistler Village, Whistler Olympic Plaza, where nightly medal ceremonies were held during the Games, is now a popular year-round outdoor gathering space. Surrounded by restaurants and local shops, the Plaza offers guests a winter skating rink and numerous outdoor concerts throughout the summer.
