The **Domain Athletic Centre** is an [athletics](/source/Athletics_(sport)) facility in [Tasmania](/source/Tasmania), [Australia](/source/Australia), located on the [Queens Domain](/source/Queens_Domain) in the [capital city](/source/Capital_city) of [Hobart](/source/Hobart). It was formerly home to the [Briggs Track Classic](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Briggs_Track_Classic&action=edit&redlink=1), the Tasmanian round of the [Australian Athletics Tour](/source/Australian_Athletics_Tour). The stadium hosted the [Australian Athletics Championships](/source/Australian_Athletics_Championships) upon its opening in 1977 and is the foremost venue for athletics in Tasmania.[1]

The centre has one major covered [grandstand](/source/Grandstand) with seating, changerooms, public toilets, and a kiosk. It features low-grade lighting suitable for evening training, but not quite up to match standards. There is a carpark with 250 spaces.

It is an Olympic Standard 400 metre oval track with 8 lanes, as well as a 10 lane straight section for 100 metre [sprinting](/source/Sprint_(running)), and 100 metre [hurdle](/source/Hurdles) races. It also features a steeplechase lane with waterpit, and lanes for [long jump](/source/Long_jump), [pole vault](/source/Pole_vault) and dedicated areas for [high jump](/source/High_jump), [discus](/source/Discus) and [hammer throwing](/source/Hammer_throwing) and the [javelin](/source/Javelin_throw).

The interior of the track is grass, and is regularly used to host football matches for both local schools and [Football Federation Tasmania](/source/Football_Federation_Tasmania) league Association Football (soccer) matches.
