The event took place inside the Oregon Convention Center, fitted with the necessary 200m track and seating for 8,000 spectators. A concept drawing of the plans were released in early 2015, showing a two toned track colored (Oregon) green, with trees adorning the peristyle of the indoor arena.{{cite web |url=http://portland2016.com |title=IAAF World Indoor Championships – Portland 2016 |work=portland2016.com |access-date=20 November 2015}}
