Cal Invitational UC Berkeley 2026

View the info - results, entry lists and meet schedule for the 2026 Cal Invitational UC Berkeley.

The 2026 Cal Invitational takes place this weekend, March 20–21, at Edwards Stadium in Berkeley, marking one of the first major outdoor track and field meets of the U.S. collegiate season. Hosted by the University of California, the meet brings together a strong mix of NCAA Division I programs, club athletes, and unattached competitors from across the West Coast.

Serving as an early-season benchmark, the Cal Invitational offers athletes their first opportunity to transition from the indoor campaign to outdoor competition. Teams such as California, Stanford, and several regional programs are expected to use the meet to test fitness, experiment with race strategies, and begin building toward the championship phase later in the spring.
