History of Area Code 778 in Canada

Vancouver area code 778 is an overlay of the 250 and 604 area codes. 778 was introduced on November 3, 2001, as the third phone code in British Columbia, Canada, to help alleviate the increase in demand for new phone numbers. With 778 came the introduction of 10-digit dialing in the Greater Vancouver area.
 

Initially, 778 served only the Vancouver area and the lower Fraser Valley. However, in 2007, it expanded to cover the entire BC province, overlapping with the 604 and 250 area codes. 604 serves the area north of Metro Vancouver to Whistler, while 250 serves areas outside of Metro Vancouver. Today, 778 is a widely recognized and utilized phone code throughout British Columbia.
