HYROX Portland brings three days of racing to the Oregon Convention Center, on the east bank of the Willamette River in the Lloyd District. Late May is mild and green, with the roses starting to bloom, though showers are still common. The one thing to know is that the MAX Red Line runs straight from the airport terminal to the venue's front door, so you won't need a car.
Checked 15 October 2026. Details change, so confirm bookings directly.

Local insights for Portland
The things a friend who lives here would tell you before race weekend.
Ride the Red Line from the terminal
MAX leaves from inside PDX and stops at Convention Center with no transfer, so you can go from baggage claim to bib pickup by train.
Tap to pay and let the cap work
TriMet's Hop system accepts contactless bank cards and phone wallets. Fares last 2.5 hours, and the system caps what you pay at the price of a day pass. Tap every time you board or transfer.
Bring a card, not cash
The Oregon Convention Center is cashless, including the garage booths, food and drink.
There's no sales tax
Oregon is one of five states without a statewide sales tax, so the price on the tag is what you pay.
Drink the tap water
The Bull Run Watershed is the main source of Portland's drinking water. Refill your bottle at the tap.
Pack for showers
Average May highs are about 20°C (69°F), with lows around 10°C (49°F) and measurable rain on about 13 days of the month. Bring a light rain shell for the walk to the venue.
Eat at the food carts
Portland has about 25 food cart pods with around 500 carts, many of them cheap and quick.
Getting to Oregon Convention Center
From Portland International Airport (PDX)
Take the MAX Red Line from the Portland Airport station. Convention Center is the 12th stop, with no change. Trains run every 15 to 30 minutes from early morning until after midnight. The venue is about 13 km from the airport.
From downtown
Cross the river on any MAX Blue, Green or Red Line train to Convention Center, or take the Portland Streetcar A Loop, which runs every 15 minutes.
