While cheering on the boys in blue and white (and sometimes brown) at BC Place is certainly an extraordinary experience, traveling alongside hundreds, if not thousands, of other Whitecaps fans into enemy territory is an experience that is not to be missed.

This year, we are doing things a bit differently, so please be sure to read through this post to the end.


Seattle: Saturday June 8, 2013, 7:30 PM

We will be offering three options for paid Southsiders for the first trip to Seattle. We have an allocation of 300 tickets for this match, all of which will be in sections 300-301 at the stadium.  Remember that one Southsiders membership = one ticket.

The three options can be found below:

Bus + Ticket  (Same Day)

Bus + Ticket (Overnight)*

Ticket-Only

Seattle (June 8)

$60

$75

$18

Purchase Cut-Off

May 13

May 13

June 7

Please note that with the “Overnight” option, you will be responsible for finding your own accommodations in Seattle. There are a few reasons for this, but the major one is that we want people to have places to stay that fit their varying needs.  That being said, we are currently finalizing agreements with two hotels (one near the Space Needle, one near the Airport), and will have those rooms available for you to book within the next few days.

Please note that this offer is open to any paid Southsider making the trip down, regardless of your means of transportation.  If you are interested in obtaining one of these rooms, please fill out this form.

Additional Bus Information

We will be offering a “Bus Upgrade” for those members who purchased the “Ticket-Only” option and wish to join the bus crew, however this will only be available until May 13.

The tentative departure/arrival times are as follows:

Portland: Saturday August 3, 2013, 8:00 pm

Given that this match falls on a long-weekend, and there is a lot going on in Portland that weekend, we wanted to offer paid Southsiders a few different options.  We have a total of 250 tickets to this match.  Remember that one Southsiders membership = one ticket.  They can be found below:

Bus Deposit: Dorms (Overnight)

Bus Deposit: Dorms

Bus Deposit: Hotel (Overnight)

Portland (August 3)

You will see that this year, you are only responsible for paying for your seat on the bus at this time.  This is a transferable, but non-refundable deposit.  Your bus deposit reserves you a ticket to the match, and accommodations at either the Portland State University dorms or the Red Lion Hotel at the Convention Centre.  Please note that these prices are based on double occupancy.

If you are a paid Southsider selecting the “Ticket-Only” option, we have a special rate at the Red Lion for you as well, for only $82/night.  If you are interested obtaining this rate, please fill out this form, and I will contact you with the information when it becomes available.

Additionally, there are a number of events taking place in Portland over the long weekend, including an NWSL game featuring Christine Sinclair, Karina LeBlanc, Lauren Sesslemann and Desiree Scott, and a Whitecaps/Timbers reserves match.  If you are interested in attending either event, please fill out this form.

Seattle: Wednesday October 9, 2013, 7:00 PM

At this time, we are only offering a “Ticket-Only” option for this particular trip.  Due to the challenges associated with attending a Wednesday away match, we are asking that those people who are interested in taking the bus down to Seattle fill out the following survey.  If numbers are sufficient, we will add a bus option in the coming months. Please note that we have 75 tickets available for this match (although we may be able to expand this if the numbers warrant it).  Remember that one Southsiders membership = one ticket.

Ticket-Only

Seattle (October 9)

$18
