The 2010 Winter Olympics had two cauldrons, one inside BC Place where the opening ceremonies were held and one outdoors next to the Vancouver Convention Centre (pictured), which was lit by Wayne Gretzky. Olympic regulations require that cauldrons must be publicly viewable, hence the existence of this cauldron, as BC Place was an indoor domed stadium at the time.
