In-Person State Field Day Location

Located in UC Davis in Wellman, Olson, Walker, and Hart Halls

Important Note: UC Davis is hosting Aggie Day for Transfer Students on the same day as State Field Day. UC Davis accepted a record number of California residents, including a 4% increase in transfer students. They will be using the Quad Area also, and are expecting a very large crowd. Please look for clover signs, green/white balloons and plan to arrive early to allow for more time to find parking.
