Blackwater Energy Stadium, formerly known as Douglass Stadium, is a retractable-roof stadium in the Douglass neighborhood of Tofino, Zamastan. Opened in 2009, the stadium is host to many tenants, most prominently of which are the Tofino Whitecaps (ZFL). Purchased by businessman Cain Blackwater (BEI) in 2013, the stadium is used for a variety of other activities, such as concerts, basketball, soccer, college and high-school sport contests. The stadium seats 80,000 people, but can be reconfigured to hold over 100,000 people, making it the second-largest stadium by capacity in Tofino after Orris Stadium.
