A world-class track and field facility giving athletes—including the UO’s outstanding student-athletes—an unparalleled stage, while giving fans a theater for track, with comfortable seats, in-stadium amenities, amazing sight lines and intimacy to competition.
This marks the fifth consecutive time the event has been at the UO since 2008 and the eighth time overall. The event will serve as the Team USA selection event for the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics.
The Visual Experience Board at Hayward Field is 60 feet tall by 160 feet long and sits on an arc between the existing concourse ramp and the northern gates. The board debuted at the 2022 Pac-12 Championships. Its design takes queues from the stadium’s scale and materiality while the board’s swooping form is meant to exude speed and fluidity. The board showcases roughly 5,080 square-feet of video screen, making it the largest permanent video screen for a track and field stadium in the country. In addition to the screen, the north side of the board features a perforated metal image of legendary UO coach Bill Hayward, blending past and present and serving as a welcoming gesture to fans arriving from Powell Plaza.
With a history as rich and full of tradition as Oregon cross country and track and field, the stories of achievement and moments of celebration are endless and ongoing.
The resurrection of the newly imagined Hayward Field at the University of Oregon has allowed for all that history and all those stories—a lot of them, anyway—to occupy one spot.
That spot is Hayward Hall.
Normal hours are 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, closed during major events. Email haywardhall@uoregon.edu.

The newly remodeled Hayward Field includes a nine-floor tower with individual floors honoring the Ducks' eight Olympic gold medalists, of which Otis Davis became the first by winning the 400 meters in Rome on Sept. 6, 1960.
In a show of its international impact, the flags of 156 countries wave at Hayward Field which signifies the number of nations represented in senior-level competition at Historic Hayward Field, before construction began on the reimagined stadium in 2018.
