Named in honor of legendary Olympic track and field champion and Ohio State alumnus Jesse Owens, the 10,000-seat Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium is arguably one of the finest multi-sport facilities in the country. The facility serves as a cornerstone to the surrounding Ohio State Athletics District that features the Woody Hayes Athletic Center, Covelli Center, Bill Davis Stadium, and the Schottenstein Center.
The stadium hosts track and field competitions in the spring and soccer in the fall. Beyond scheduled competitions, it offers a distinctive open-air atmosphere ideal for sporting events, ceremonies, showcases, and large-scale gatherings. With expansive sightlines, modern amenities, and a legacy rooted in excellence, Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium delivers an experience worthy of its namesake — where performance, community, and celebration come together.
