Are You Ready to Welcome the World?

The stage is finally set for Eugene’s international debut, after a year-long delay from the pandemic. Hosted in Beijing in 2015 and hosted in London in 2017, the world now looks towards Eugene to host the World Athletics Championships at Hayward Field in 2022—bringing this prestigious athletic showcase to U.S. soil for the first time.

Eugene has never seen an event of this scale before.  For the first time in local major sporting event history, the fan festival will not be next to Hayward at the UO which means tourists will be exploring the larger community for food, shopping, and entertainment.

Be prepared for this once-in-a-lifetime experience with Onward Eugene’s Committed to Community webinar for small businesses to help leverage the 50k+ tourists that will be arriving!

Learn everything you need to know about how to make your business listing stand out from Social Media Expert, Kaylyn LeRoy of Turell Group, and get the insider info about getting your business featured on the Travel Lane County website from Emily Forsha, VP of Marketing.

We would like to thank Comcast Business, the City of Eugene, and the City of Springfield for making this webinar possible through their sponsorship.
