PACKING THE FANS NEAR THE FINISH LINE
HAYWARD FIELD ATHLETICS STADIUM IN EUGENE Hayward Field sets a new standard for fan experience and connection to the sport with comfortable seating for every single patron, a diversity of in-stadium food and beverage amenities, great sight lines and close proximity to the athletes and the action. SRG Partnership consider the facility a true theater for track-and-field events. The 9-story tower at the main public entry resembles the Olympic torch, while its metal cladding features imagery of five legendary Oregon athletes. The 12,650-seat stadium (expandable to nearly 25,000 seats) provides world-class facilities for the track-and-field student-athletes to train, develop and perform at their highest potential. All
aspects of the stadium beyond the competitive track were envisioned to be used by the athletes for training – from the public concourses and ramps totaling 7,810 m², which are covered in sb 2/2022
