About Eugene: Eugene is a college town known for its unique, exciting mix of arts, culture, education, scenic beauty, and passion for recreation. The Willamette and McKenzie rivers are magnets for water sports and recreation, and more than 100 parks and 2,600 acres of open space offer the perfect settings for any outdoor activity you can imagine. Also an arts and culture destination, Eugene offers festivals, performances and shows year-round.  The Hult Center for the Performing Arts anchors the arts scene with two world-class theaters. With the University of Oregon and Lane Community College, Eugene is also a center for higher learning — and top-notch athletic events from football at Autzen Stadium to track and field at historic Hayward Field.

 The Wilamette Valley is known for several renowned vineyards and is an exception place to kick off a wine tour. Whether you come for the scenic beauty, culture, education or sports, Eugene has it all. If we didn’t, we couldn't call ourselves the “World’s Greatest City of the Arts & Outdoors!”
