About Carl Lewis International Complex

The Carl Lewis International Complex is a premier outdoor track and field stadium at the University of Houston’s campus in Houston, Texas. Home to the 9-lane Tom Tellez Track and the Carolyn & Ron Yokubaitis Field, the complex also hosts women's soccer and a variety of UH track meets. With a capacity of 2,500 spectators, the venue offers a unique, intimate experience for athletes and fans alike. Whether you’re attending the Yokubaitis Invitational or a Tom Tellez Track & Field Invitational, we’ve got you covered with practical tips on seating, parking, transit, and nearby accommodations.

Seating at the Carl Lewis International Complex relies on bleacher arrangements updated during the 2015-2016 renovations; a specific public seating chart isn’t published. If you’re securing seats, look for bleacher sections and arrive early for the best views along the 9-lane European-style Tom Tellez Track. Parking is convenient on campus, with Lot 15H north of the complex serving event traffic. For transit, Houston METRO serves the UH campus, and the Purple Line links to downtown Houston for easy access. When you’re planning your trip, consider affiliate hotel clusters around Greenway Plaza and Downtown Houston—options include Hilton, DoubleTree by Hilton, JW Marriott, and Westin Downtown—paired with nearby dining choices that fit a busy event schedule. We’ve highlighted trusted hotel and restaurant partners to help you secure comfortable stays and reliable meal options without the guesswork.
