Lane Events Center (LEC) is updating its Master Plan to help guide investment in the property over the next 10 to 20 years and hosting an open house to explore initial concepts, discuss emerging values, and help shape a shared vision for the Lane Events Center.
Community Open House
Thursday, April 3 | 5–7 p.m.
Lane Events Center
796 W 13th Ave, Eugene, OR 97402
Convention Center, Meeting Room 4
“This is our first open house for the Master Plan and the feedback people give will help us keep refining our vision for the future and look for ways to make Lane Events Center an even more integral part of the community,” said Lane Events Center Manager Corey Buller. “We had a great response to our earlier survey and now we’re hoping to see a lot of neighbors and community members here on April third.”
LEC is a multi-purpose site on 52 acres near downtown Eugene. It includes a 100,000 sq. ft. convention center, 18 rentable spaces and facilities, and 20 acres of outdoor event space. In a typical year, LEC accommodates up to 1,250 event days, drawing approximately 785,000 visitors to a variety of events including the Lane County Fair, trade shows, concerts, sporting events, community festivals, and educational programs.
The Master Plan process will help Lane County:
- Conduct an engagement process that gathers diverse perspectives and ideas
- Identify community needs, values, and priorities
- Shape a shared vision for Lane Events Center
- Develop community-guided designs concepts to bring the vision to life
The proposed plan will be presented to the Board of County Commissioners for possible adoption this summer.
