Nevada Athletics and the Reno-Sparks Convention & Visitors Authority will host the Mountain West Indoor Track and Field Championships in 2026.

It will mark the first time Nevada has hosted a conference indoor championship meet since holding the WAC Championships in both 2001 and 2002. The last time Nevada hosted a Mountain West championship event in any sport was 2019, when the baseball tournament was held at Don Weir Field at Peccole Park.

The three-day championship is scheduled for February 26-28, 2026 and marks the first time that Nevada has hosted Indoor Track and Field Championships since joining the Mountain West.

The state-of-the-art Reno-Tahoe Indoor Track opened in December 2024. The track builder, Mondo, has built every Olympic track for the last 40 years. The facility is also World Athletics certified, and one of only three facilities certified to host high-level events on the West Coast.
