Surrey needs new facilities. Surrey Forward, led by mayoral candidate Jinny Sims will construct a new performing arts centre, entertainment district and 10,000 seat stadium in the Tom Binnie Park region. In addition, new office buildings and residential towers will be included in the project.

The area will consist of a performing arts centre with two theatres. The largest will have a seating capacity of between 800 and 1,400 seats and will be designed to accommodate large touring shows such as cultural dance performances, broadway shows, musical acts and the like. The second theatre will be between 200 and 400 seats and will be designed to accommodate community theatre and foster the development of professional dance and theatre companies in Surrey.

The entertainment district will centre around restaurants, night life and other year round entertainment activities.

The soccer stadium will be constructed to attract a Canadian Premier League style club, ideally with both a male and female professional soccer team.

"This project will be completed by early 2026," said Jinny Sims, Surrey Forward Mayoral candidate. "It will be the first project of a reconstituted Surrey City Development Corporation. We can create a process whereby the soccer field, entertainment district, offices and residences will be completed by the Surrey City Development Corporation. And the Civic Arts Centre will be funded through the net return from the SCDC investment in order to minimize taxpayer investment."

"Cities are at their strongest when the interests of corporations and developers are directed to include public outcomes."

"We will complete this by 2026 to ensure we are able to participate completely in the World Cup. Surrey will look to host a national team at our facility as a warm-up and training facility. Ideally we will welcome the world through friendly training matches and preparation for games in Vancouver."

"Should Vancouver and their First Nations partners be successful in the bid for the 2030 Winter Olympics the City of Surrey will participate in the performing arts elements of the games."

"This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to put Surrey in the world’s eye, one that we cannot pass up by short-sighted politicians fighting over decisions made in the past decade."
