The Laver Cup, named after Australian legend Rod Laver, is an annual international tennis event. It is inspired by the Ryder Cup in golf and has a bit different functionality in comparison to other ATP tournaments. It officially became an ATP Tour tournament in 2019, though it was established in 2017.
The 2023 Laver Cup will be the sixth edition of Roger Federer’s brainchild. It will take place at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, Canada, from September 22 until September 24. The tournament is usually held in places that don’t host ATP Tour events and changes every year.
Where will the 2023 Laver Cup take place?
The 2023 Laver Cup will be held in Vancouver, Canada.
As it was previously mentioned, the venue of the Laver Cup changes every year; thus, this will be the first time that the Laver Cup will be held in Vancouver, Canada, at the Roger Arena.
Since its inception in 2017, the event has taken place in Prague at the O2 Arena, followed by Chicago at the United Center in 2018 and Geneva at Palexpo in 2019. In 2021, it took place at the TD Garden in Boston, and in 2022, at the O2 Arena in London.
Which stadium will host the Laver Cup in 2023?
The Rogers Arena in Vancouver, Canada, will host the Laver Cup in 2023. Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada's downtown, is home to the multipurpose Rogers Arena, which can be found at 800 Griffiths Way. The arena was originally known as General Motors Place (GM Place) when it first opened in 1995.
However, on July 6, 2010, General Motors Canada discontinued its sponsorship of the naming rights, and a new agreement for those rights was made with Rogers Communications.
The multi-purpose Rogers arena is considered home ground by the National Lacrosse League's Vancouver Warriors, the Overwatch League's Vancouver Titans, and the National Hockey League's Vancouver Canucks. The 2010 Winter Olympics' ice hockey tournaments were also held at this arena.
During the Olympics, the arena's name was temporarily changed to Canada Hockey Place. From 1995 to 2001, it served as the NBA's home arena for the Vancouver Grizzlies. The Grizzlies spent six seasons in Vancouver before making their move to Memphis in 2001.
