This is the first time the Wanda Diamond League Final will be held on U.S. soil.
The Prefontaine Classic and TrackTown USA invite fans to join them at the 5th Street Public Market Alley to watch the below meets in an environment that is second to none. Surrounding the viewing of the meet, attendees will have the opportunity to score special offers from local businesses and win prizes through raffles and games.

Over the 13 Wanda Diamond League meets that take place prior to The Prefontaine Classic, competing athletes will score points based on their performance that qualify them to compete at the 2023 Wanda Diamond League Final. Of the entire season, the four meets selected for these in-person watch parties are widely regarded as some of the most highly-contested Wanda Diamond League meets every year.
In addition to watch parties being held in Eugene, Portland Track will host watch parties for the same four meets in Portland, Oregon. Details for those events will be shared on Portland Track’s website.
