Holdom Station is located on the elevated portion of the Millennium Line, a part of Metro Vancouver's SkyTrain rapid transit system.

The station is located at the intersection of Lougheed Highway and Holdom Avenue in Burnaby. The station structure is topped with a sculpture by glass artist Graham Scott, including square lanterns made of sandblasted mirror that is lit by stage-quality lighting. The colour of the lights, controlled by a computer, continually and randomly changes.

Located adjacent to the Station is a residential development with two high-rise towers and low-rise units.
